University Of Alaska Anchorage: UAA Online Bookstore: Spring 2022 Adoption Deadlines, Guidance And Trainings

Press release from the University of Alaska Anchorage:

September 14, 2021

Dear UAA Faculty,

Thank you for all you do to ensure students have the resources and materials they
need for a successful semester. Research shows that having access to textbooks and
other course materials is an important factor in student success. To that end, it
is time to consider your bookstore orders for spring 2022.

The textbook and other course materials submission portal at the UAA Online Bookstore
will be open for Anchorage, Mat-Su, Kodiak, and PWSC faculty to submit their adoptions
from Sept. 15 to Oct. 8. It is important that all faculty enter course material information,
even just to indicate that the class will use open educational resources, inclusive
access materials, or that there are no required materials for the class. KPC faculty
— please contact the KPC Bookstore for instructions on the KPC textbook adoption process.

Course materials submission portal open Sept. 15–Oct. 8

Some time between Sept. 15 and Oct. 8, log in to enter your spring course material
information at uaa.textbookx.com using your existing UA credentials. To comply with federal regulations requiring
UAA to publish course-material costs prior to registration, after Oct. 8, the portal
will be set to read-only. Changes after Oct. 8 may only be made due to unforeseen
circumstances and with the approval of the dean.

If adoptions are placed and courses/sections are reassigned, the adopted material
will remain in the designated course/section. Please notify your bookstore contact
immediately if your assignment changes or you are assigned late and adoption changes
are necessary.

Future textbook submissions deadlines can be found on the Calendars and Deadlines page of the Academic Affairs website.
