      The following are some terms you will see when purchasing textbooks/course material on eCampus.

      • Rent  You are renting the textbook and will be required to return it at the end of the semester. Save the box that the book came in, as you are responsible for shipping the textbook back at the end of the term.
      • eTextbooks  eTextbooks are available online or in downloadable versions—this varies based on the publisher. eTextbooks contain the same content as a print textbook. Please select carefully, as returns and refunds are subject to strict limitations. You are emailed information on accessing your eTextbook as soon as your order has been processed. After placing your order, your digital product will be added to your My Account Digital Bookshelf within 24 hours.
      • Buying Courseware/Access Code This option provides a digital access code, which is key to accessing digital learning materials. The access code may also be supplied within a textbook bundle, as a printed copy, or in an email. After placing your order, your digital product will be added to your My Account Digital Bookshelf within 24 hours.
      • Used  A used item often contains highlighting, writing, or notes throughout. Supplements such as access cards or CDs, even if listed in the book’s title, are usually not included in a used copy.
      • New  Purchasing a new textbook ensures it is packaged with all the supplements listed in the packet, such as online access cards or codes, CDs, or software access.
      • Inclusive Access  This option provides access to required course materials directly through Blackboard. In general, you can access courseware and/or eBooks automatically, typically without needing to redeem a code.

      After placing your order, you will be emailed information on accessing your digital product(s) as soon as your order has been processed. Your digital product(s) will be available in the Digital Bookshelf section of your My Account within 24 hours. Your Digital Bookshelf is accessed within eCampus using your Edison State login information. To access your code, click Active Materials and then Click to Reveal.

      Please visit the eCampus Help Desk for additional information about accessing digital materials.

      You will also receive a link on your order confirmation page that will take you directly to your Digital Bookshelf.

      Depending on the order specifications, your digital item(s) may display as pending until it has been fulfilled.

      Digital items with a pending status are typically released after roughly 24–48 hours. Most newly purchased items are accessible within 1 to 2 hours, but it could take up to 24 hours.

      When purchasing a digital access code, you could see an Awaiting Fulfillment EDO order status—stating that the item "will be added to digital bookshelf within 5 to 7 business days.”  Please note that this cannot be expedited, as it means we are awaiting the code from the publisher.

      eBooks  For most courses, you will see a link within Blackboard labeled "Course Materials." If you do not see this link, check with your instructor in the event that it has been labeled differently. You may also find your course materials within each course under your navigation bar labeled Tools. Simply follow this shortcut to the eCampus Inclusive Access portal and click the Read Now button associated with your digital textbook.

      Courseware  How you access courseware varies based on several factors. We recommend that you reach out to your instructor if you need guidance.

      Undergraduate students can explore options with other book vendors. Please note that excess financial aid funding can only be used through eCampus.

      College Credit Plus students should still order the required materials.

      If a book is truly out of stock, eCampus should allow the purchase of the material and will send a digital access code in the meantime.
