Faculty who plan to use clickers for instruction during the Spring 2015 semester will need to have device order(s) submitted to the Bookstore no later than Friday, October 24, 2014. This deadline allows the Bookstore to shop national wholesalers early for used books and items, prepare for buyback, avoid sending back to publishers leftover stock that will be reused next semester, and notify faculty of any availability problems.
The University’s due date for textbook and course materials information is Monday, November 24, 2014. The University has instituted this deadline so that all textbook information, including clicker requirements, may be posted on the Bookstore's website, in adherence with State Law, as students prepare for their Spring 2015 schedules.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the UMBC bookstore at textbook@umbc.edu or 410-455-2699.
