Textbooks & Supplies

Students are responsible for purchasing required textbooks and supplies. The cost varies from semester to semester and from one program of study to another. Books and supplies are available from the Kraken Campus Store as well as other outlets.

Visit Textbooks and Supplies for any updates to the following information.

BUYING TEXTBOOKS

The Kraken Campus Store offers a wide selection of textbooks in new, used, rental, and e-book format.

ALTERNATIVE RETAILERS

You are not required to purchase your textbooks from the Kraken Campus Store. The same textbook may also be available from an independent retailer, including an online retailer.

BUY-BACK SERVICES

Ask your bookstore about specific buy back policies. Generally, you can sell your textbook back at the end of the semester if it is in good condition and still required for Carteret coursework.

TEXTBOOK RETURNS

Ask your bookstore about specific return policies. Generally, returns are no problem with a valid receipt or packing slip for unwrapped materials.
