NIU Libraries' Textbook Task Force purchases some required course materials based on faculty recommendations. Print textbooks purchased through this program will be put on two-hour reserve at the Circulation Desk for student use in the library. We also purchase ebooks, but only those available with library licenses which allow for unlimited users. Because of limited funds, we may not be able to acquire every textbook requested.
