How does estimated enrollment affect the number of books?
We base our ordering decisions on: 1) the estimated enrollment in the course, 2) past sales of the text, 3) the cost of the book, 4) the likelihood of other copies on campus, and 5) the “optional” status of the book. If you wish us to order varying quantities of particular titles, or can give us additional information about these factors, please do. Also, if you will be needing to purchase a copy for your own use, for TA’s, or to put on closed reserve in the Library, please include these numbers as well. Please Note: If your books will take a particularly long time to obtain, such as in the case of imported foreign language books, you may want to over-estimate your enrollment so that all students will be able to get their books in a timely fashion.
