Bookstore Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

 

Textbook Rental Check-ins/ Returns

 

Q. Can I come to the bookstore to check-in my rental textbooks for this term?

 

A: No, our Pierce College Bookstore physical location is closed. Students can ship rentals back to the store. Please send an email to the store at Bookstore@piercecollege.edu to request a free Rental Return Shipping Label and packing slip. When you send your request, be sure to include your name, address, phone number and Student ID#.

 

If you need to mail in your rented book and calculator, please contact the store. We will send you a label or direct you to a drop box.

 

Q. Because the campus is closed, I cannot bring in my rented textbooks. Will I get charged for the textbooks due to missing the due date?

 

A: While the due date for rented books has not changed, the “non-return charge date” has been extended 15 days past your current return due date to allow time for your mailed book to reach the store.  To avoid late charges, please have your book in transit by the due date.

 

Q. Can I BUY or EXTEND my rentals on the website?

A.  No, if you originally rented your textbook in the store, and rented online, there is no option to buy or extend the rental on the website at this time.  We are working to have an option to buy or extend the rental on the website on the Rentals page.
