Step 11: Buying Your Books

The Cleveland State University Bookstore sells all textbooks required for your classes. You can also rent certain textbooks from the Bookstore and save up to 50% off. To purchase or rent textbooks, you will need a copy of your class schedule, including the correct course and section number. Students have two options to purchase textbooks:

  1. Online through the Bookstore website. Students can view required textbooks and costs. If students are purchasing their textbooks online, textbooks can be mailed to your home address or they can be bundled for you to pick up at the Bookstore. The Bookstore website also allows you to view both new and used textbooks.
  2. Visit the Bookstore. Please bring a copy of your class schedule when purchasing your books. The staff at the Bookstore can also assist you in selecting the correct textbooks. The Bookstore is located at 2121 Euclid Avenue in the new Student Center. For more assistance, please call the Bookstore at 216.687.2128.

Free membership cards are also available through the Bookstore. With your membership card you earn points with every purchase and even when you sell your books back!


I recommend that you purchase your textbooks prior to the start of the semester to avoid the rush!
