    3. Revising old Course Pack
    • We need a proof ready copy for printing, and citations on each item included for checking copyrights.
    • (Please note: Some copyright approvals can take up to 8 weeks)
  • Notify your Textbook Buyer for any additions or changes to your adoptions. Forms can be faxed or emailed to us for prompt service.
  • Our deadline for adoption forms are set to provide us adequate time to purchase as many used copies as possible through Buyback and other Wholesale programs.

We are the only university-owned Bookstore. Purchases made through us financially support the university programs, faculty and staff.

We are your official Missouri State Bookstore.
