With the price match guaranteed, the Middlesex Community College Online Bookstore will price match a new, used, or rental textbook within seven days of purchase. For more information about price matching, please visit middlesex.ecampus.com/price-match.

Marketplace books are items listed and shipped by independent sellers, such as other students and parents. These sellers have two business days after your order is placed to ship the order. Please be sure to read each item’s description before ordering, as each Marketplace book has its own condition, description, and shipping cost. Not all Marketplace items are available for expedited shipping, and these items will arrive separately from the rest of the order.

You may ship your order anywhere you choose. When entering shipping information, you may have the option to check the “Ship to Campus” box to ship directly to campus (excludes Marketplace purchases) or enter any valid shipping address. You will receive email and text message alerts (if you choose to opt in) when your package is shipped and delivered.

We accept Visa and MasterCard debit cards. You may also use Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards to pay for your order. We also accept PayPal and Apple Pay. For more information, please visit the Online Help Desk at middlesex.ecampus.com/help.

Select the Add Adoption button to add your selected ISBN along with the importance level and option to designate the adoption as required to be purchased in new condition. You can also use the View Adoption History button to easily readopt materials that have been used in previous academic years.

Until an adoption is added to a course, or Textbooks are not required for this course is selected, each course will default to Textbooks to be determined status. This allows the Online Bookstore to remain HEOA compliant, while also informing the students to return to the Online Bookstore at a later date. If books are added after the deadline, a course will automatically be marked as Textbooks to be determined for 24-48 hours. This allows the Online Bookstore Team enough time to confirm publisher availability. You will be notified if an issue with your selected adoption exists.

Prices and purchasing options may be reviewed by using the Catalog tool at the top of the FAST adoption portal. Enter the ISBN in the search bar, then select Details.

After a book is added to a course, a Request Desk Copy button will appear near it. You may also search any book in the Adoption Tool at the top of the FAST screen and request a desk copy from the Details page. After a request is submitted, the Online Bookstore Team will receive an automatic email and request it directly from the publisher on your behalf. Please note, desk copies are distributed at the compliance of the publisher and are never guaranteed.
