*Purchase books online

*Purchase books by Fax (printable form)

*Purchase books by iChapters (opens in new window)

iChapters.com is affiliated with Cengage Learning (publisher) and offers a large selection of print and digital course material (textbooks, e-books and individual chapters) and is another alternative to the high cost of textbooks.  Western Piedmont Community College and the Bookstore does not own or maintain ichapters.com and are not responsible for orders placed thru iChapters. 

Please read the “FAQs” on the iChapters website before purchasing and make sure you are purchasing the correct textbook for the class.  Several textbooks adopted for classes at WPCC use components that are packaged by the publisher with the textbook.  We encourage you to visit the Bookstore’s webpage, click on “Purchase books on-line” and find the textbook information for the current semester, or call the Bookstore for textbook information.  Financial aid students may not use financial aid monies to purchase on-line thru iChapters.
