Textbook Entry

Picture
3. To Search the database for books that have previously been used at Alliant, select “Search for Existing Textbooks to Assign to Course.” You can search by Title or a word in the Title, or by Author, Publisher, or ISBN. Because the search will be looking for exact matches to what you typed, sometimes using just a key word from the title will return better results. Narrow your results by checking “Search only textbooks you used in the past 5 years.” Click “Search.”
Picture
Review the list that is returned. If your book is shown, select it by checking the box to the left of the title. Indicate whether the book is required or optional. Select “Assign Selected Textbooks” at the bottom of the page. If your book is not listed, you can search again with more search terms, or select “Cancel” to return to the main screen.
