The Douglas College Bookstores

The Bookstores are located at both the New Westminster and Coquitlam Campuses.  Each Bookstore carries the course materials (textbooks, coursepacks and supplementary materials) specific to the campus where the course is offered.

Come and check out our large selection of new and used textbooks, reference books, supplies, clothing, gifts and more.

Personalized booklists are now available and can be accessed through the on-line Self-Service system.  The first date to view personalized booklists is generally six weeks prior to a semester start.  A full course booklist detailing all textbooks for the semester is available at each store and on the Bookstore website  at www.douglas.bc.ca/services/bookstore. 

Visa,  MasterCard, Debit, cash, or personalized cheques (cheques must be accompanied by Douglas College Student ID) are accepted methods of payment.

Students who are sponsored for their Bookstore purchases (through a scholarship, Government Ministry, an employer, or other sponsoring agency) should contact the Finance Office before the start of the semester to confirm the sponsor has faxed a copy of the agreement (dollar amounts and restrictions should be specified).  Contact the Finance Department at 604-527-5095 prior to December 2, 2011.

     Used textbook buybacks are held at both Bookstores.  The next buyback occurs:

      December 8 - 16       9:00 am - 4:00 pm 

Need more information?  Visit the Bookstore website www.douglas.bc.ca/services/bookstore or come to either Bookstore.  We are here to assist.
