Hey Daily Cal, thanks for the press release on the wonders of eFollett's NEXT-DAY DELIVERY! (woo!) What a journalistic bonanza of hard-hitting coverage.
Follett says its online bookstore is updated daily with the newest titles requested by professors for their courses.Ned's Den has books by course control number, typically weeks before eFollett. So does locally-run ComeGetUsed.But speaking for myself, I get my books used off Amazon. You can get some really cheap books. The story doesn't mention A) what partnership made this possible and B) What the return process is like. Is it at the ASUC Bookstore? Probably. A much more interesting story would be in the disparity of the Copy Shops. Why does Copy Central get all the work? There's tons of copy places out there that only do a few readers. It would obviously be more efficient if they were farmed out, so those 40 minute waits at that one single Copy Central on Bancroft were a thing of the past.Email This Post! |
