Summer and Fall 2018 Textbook Adoptions

Joseph Glover, Provost and Senior Vice President

The textbook adoption system for Summer and Fall 2018 is now available to faculty and departments to submit their textbook adoptions and materials requirements. Please visit http://www.textadoption.ufl.edu/ to enter Summer and Fall 2018 adoptions.

The deadline for Summer adoptions is March 30, 2018. The deadline for Fall adoptions is July 8, 2018.

Knowledge of course textbook and materials requirements helps students balance their course loads based on reading demands and financial needs – including the purchasing of books.

Timely entry of this information also provides students their best opportunity to sell books back at higher prices. Bookstores typically will not offer to buy back texts unless the text is listed as being used the next semester.

Timely posting of textbook adoptions has the strong support of the student body, and it is a law in Florida Statutes. UF students continue to endorse the availability of textbook information online and have indicated it aids in course selection.

If you have any questions about the textbook adoption submission process, please contact the textbook adoption website administrator at (352) 294-3355 or email TextAdoption-WebHelp@bsd.ufl.edu.
