MassBay Bookstore Information

How to order textbooks and bookstore shipping information.

Bookstore

Find & Order my Textbooks

Students should order their books as soon as possible.

To identify which books you need to purchase, you will need:

  • Course department, subject code, and section (e.g., EN101-001) or;
  • Class number/course ID (a four-digit number related to the specific course, e.g., 1230). 

These will be located on your “class schedule" in BayNavigator.

After obtaining this information, go to the MassBay Bookstore or website. If shopping on the website, click the Textbooks tab, enter the correct term, and then shop by either the course number/section or course ID number. This will provide you with a list of all the textbooks required for the class.

The bookstore offers a variety of textbook formats: new, used, rental, and digital for most books.  Not all books are available in all formats.

If no textbooks are listed, either no textbook is required for the class or the professor has not provided the textbook information to the bookstore. Faculty are continuously submitting required textbooks, so please check regularly.
