Textbooks and other required course materials are a major resource for your professional development. Students will be responsible for materials and content assigned, even if it is not directly covered in class. Textbooks purchased for nursing courses may be required in subsequent courses or be needed as reference materials for NCLEX-RN preparation; students are strongly discouraged from renting textbooks or purchasing short-term access to eBooks / resources for this reason. Nursing students are strongly discouraged from selling their textbooks.
