Find Books and Supplies

Go to the Barnes & Noble College Bookstore at Central Piedmont website?(using Chrome or Safari) or download the free My Bookstore app.

In the "Bookstore" tab, select "Course Materials and Textbooks," then "Find Course Materials."

Select the "Central Piedmont Community College" icon, then select campus where your class is located.

-?Classes at Central Campus or online: select "Central Piedmont Community College."

-?Corporate and Continuing Education students: select "Corporate and Continuing Education."

Complete all fields in the Term/Department/Course/Section columns, then select "Retrieve Materials."

If you don't select all the options for each class, you will get an error message.

To find your course information: Log into your MyCollege account --> Go to "Academics" --> Select "Student Planning" --> Select "Plan and Schedule."

On the "Select Format" menu, select the format you would like to buy (if your course has multiple format options).

Both items are not always required — before adding items to your cart, read all information for each item so that you do not order unneeded/extra items:

- Required: must have for class.

- Recommended: recommended/option provided by faculty.

- Package Component: access code that is part of the required bundle. Do not buy both the code and the book bundle. Most access codes are physical items that must be shipped to you.

- Bookstore Recommended: items recommended by the bookstore that may be helpful for the course.

Select "Add Item(s) To Your Cart," then select "Checkout."

Create your account (if needed) by completing all fields on the "Create Your Account" form. If you already have an account, select “I already have an account” and log in.

This is not your Central Piedmont login — you have to create a separate account.

Select your preferred delivery method:

- In-store pick-up: pick up at a Central Piedmont bookstore (you can change the campus location later); you can designate another person to pick up the order. Whoever picks up the order is required to show photo ID.

- Ship to address: shipped by UPS.

Select your payment method on the "Payment Options" page.

Financial aid, dual enrollment, middle college, sponsored, and Veterans Affairs Education Benefits students: review the instructions in the following "Payment Options Instructions" section for additional payment options instructions.

You do need to enter credit card information if you are renting textbooks, even if you are using financial aid or other funding to cover your rental fee. Keep reading for more information on renting textbooks.

Review all information and select "Submit." You will not be charged until your order is processed. Check the email address you provided for an order confirmation email.
