BOOKLISTS

Booklists contain Required, Recommended, and Optional adoption levels; you only need to obtain Required textbooks.

Check your curriculum* to see which courses you will take; there will be courses listed in the booklists that are not in your track. Only order textbooks for courses listed in your curriculum (or individualized program of study). Some textbooks may be used in more than one course and/or semester. If you don’t see a course listed in your program booklist, check the Certificate Booklist. Booklists only contain courses offered for the specified semester.

Some textbooks are available online for free through our electronic databases (JAMA Evidence, FA Davis, Access Medicine, Access Physiotherapy, EBSCO, etc.). You need to be logged in to LibLynx for access. Please do not check out EBSCO eBooks for the semester; some have unlimited access, but most are single-user access only. Other textbooks are available online for free through the Internet Archive; you’ll need to create a free account with them to access those books.

Counseling program, all Cengage Unlimited textbooks are available for free through Canvas.

Optometry program, some textbooks are available for free through VitalSource.
