Welcome

Welcome to SBCC Bookstore. Purchasing textbooks can be very stressful as they are quite expensive. Please take a moment to read the info below as it may save you some money.

The cost of textbooks continues to escalate. It is not uncommon for the cost of texts to be $600 to $800 per semester. This escalation is driven by regular increases from college publishers. SBCC Bookstore has a robust program of used books, rentals, and E-books to help alleviate these costs. Nonetheless, customers should be prepared for these increased costs.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ THE REFUND POLICY COMPLETELY AS CERTAIN CONDITIONS APPLY TO TEXT REFUNDS

The Bookstore is owned by the SBCC Community College District and all profits are directed in support of student programs and activities. These include athletics, Student Life, scholarships through the SBCC Foundation, the Library Reserve program and other projects which benefit the quality of the student experience on campus.
