From Elizabeth Hendrey, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs:

I am forwarding a reminder from Akademos, the online bookstore, to submit your book adoptions for winter and spring semesters as soon as possible. It is important that book information be available to students when they register for their courses. The information you submit to the online bookstore is automatically uploaded to CUNYfirst. For courses where an instructor is not yet assigned but the book choice is known, we ask that the department forward the book information directly to qcbookstore@akademos.com<mailto:qcbookstore@akademos.com>. The instructions for submitting book information are provided below. Your timely submissions are of great benefit to our students. Thank you for your assistance. ______________________________________________________ A message from the QC Bookstore: Dear Faculty and Staff, The bookstore will be open next week for winter/spring term purchases. To assist the online bookstore in sourcing the most cost-effective materials, we ask that you please submit your winter and spring textbook adoptions by the suggested deadline of this Friday, December 2. Adoptions can be accepted after this week, but timely submission assists the bookstore in providing the best possible availability for students. You can submit your book information by logging in to www.QCBookstore.com <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001ML_1UxX5WymJE9HTEYCbo94mRl8s_xpjIMDm886NvGYXBxNZUq-O1pw0OUpbRjJO3SFcfQDFYr6OiBxa16ocBDXamCZjkumLJz2t8D4zm7QpS6jar1wWEZ5UTd3Dfmzy1p2QYLhc5TG7SWMKZ5RwYpDCfi5o7EPPzg3EUMgfIOg=&c=uH9SFhDlFXuwpfP2JWZhfnAshC4cosO7VllD7m_Fz-CW0lJcr18cZQ==&ch=WSd3uSgm7hov2mSmksGA964dniwcu0HnscgMdAq02Ufxny7UAFM95A==> with your CUNYfirst credentials, accessing your personalized course list, and entering your book information. A brief guide to assist you with this process is appended below. All textbook adoptions must be submitted to the online bookstore, not in CUNYfirst. Book information entered in the bookstore will transfer back to CUNYfirst. Note: If you are not yet formally assigned to a course in CUNYfirst, your course may not appear when you log in to the Online Bookstore. If you are unable to log in to the bookstore, or if you have any issues adding your adoption to the site, please email your course and text information to qcbookstore@akademos.com<mailto:qcbookstore@akademos.com> for processing and confirmation. Thank you again for your support. Guide to Submitting Your Textbook Adoptions To submit your course adoptions, follow these easy steps: 1.
