NOTE:

EOPS book service is provided to students to support them financially ensuring that students have the educational tools necessary to succeed academically. The amount allocated may not cover all the textbook related expenses. If, however, you have completed purchasing all the required textbooks for your classes, but have not exhausted the full amount allocated for spring the remainder amount will remain in the EOPS account to be used for book voucher allocation next term. Book Vouchers may be used to purchase/rent only those books that are required for registered courses. The book voucher is non-transferable. In no circumstances, students may use their EOPS book voucher to purchase books for another individual.

Potential EOPS Students: Receiving a book voucher is not guaranteed by the program. It is contingent upon student eligibility and available funds. It is highly recommended that while in the admission process, students purchase/rent their books and keep their receipts. If you get a book voucher award the first semester you can get reimbursed up to the maximum amount of the book voucher award. All exchanges or returns are done at the bookstore.

NOTE: Glendale Community College Bookstore is now offering affordable textbook options for many classes with their new Rent-a-Text program. Many books are now eligible for renting at prices up to 50% and more off of the new price of a book. EOPS students can use their vouchers to rent books, however, to participate in the program, each student must be 18 years of age; have a valid Driver’s License/State ID, email address and credit card. For details, see bookstore’s new website, www.glendale.bkstr.com or visit the bookstore.

ATTENTION: Before renting any books, please read Q&A section regarding the rental option: http://www.rent-a-text.com/faq.php. All fees associated with the book rental program are the student’s responsibility.

NOTE: EOPS will not take any responsibility for not returned, late returned, lost or stolen books.
