Western Nevada College issued the following announcement.
Students can find a book return box and ordering kiosk in Student Services on the Carson City campus and in Getto Hall on the Fallon campus.
With many students already savvy online shoppers in an ever-evolving cyber world, they’ll find Western Nevada College’s new bookstore user friendly.
WNC has enlisted in a contemporary bookstore — Textbook Brokers — to serve its students’ needs moving forward. Textbook Brokers offers students a full-service online bookstore to purchase textbooks, eBooks, digitally delivered coursework and fully emblematic WNC merchandise.
The WNCbookstore.com website became live on July 1, providing students with sufficient time to decide on their classes and which books they’ll need for fall semester. Textbook Brokers plans to add new merchandise to the website throughout the summer, and all fall 2021 semester textbooks will be available for purchase on Aug. 1.
“In an effort to bring students back to the WNC bookstore, Textbook Brokers will be offering market competitive pricing, meaning students won’t need to shop on Amazon,” said Mark Mazurowski, Nevada regional manager for Textbook Brokers.
Ordering kiosks and book drop boxes have already been installed on the Carson City and Fallon campuses. Students can find them in Student Services on the Carson City campus and in Getto Hall on the Fallon campus. There is also a book return box in Student Center across from the Game Room in the Dini Building.
Even though there won’t be an actual bookstore on campus as in the past, Textbook Brokers will provide a popup store on WNC’s Fallon and Carson City campuses at the start of the semester. Students will be able to pick up their online orders on campus during the first week of school at either popup location. Specific times for the popup locations will be announced later.
To place an order, students will just need to visit WNC.bookstore.com — which is iPhone and Android friendly — and enter their student ID. “At which point their course materials will automatically add to their cart,” Mazurowski said. Next, they’ll click checkout and select to have their books delivered to their home address or to their respective campus for pickup.
