EFSC Campus Bookstores
The EFSC Bookstore is your one-stop shop for new, used, rental and electronic textbooks, as well as college supplies, clothing and gifts. All four on-campus EFSC Bookstores have reopened, however, the Titusville store is often open by appointment only, with added walk-in hours at the end and beginning of terms to facilitate textbook pick-up and rental returns. (See below and Locations & Hours box for important access details). To adhere to social distancing requirements, only 20 people will be permitted in each store at a time; please be prepared to wait outdoors in the event of high customer volume. For your safety, masks or face coverings must also be worn while visiting or waiting near any EFSC Bookstore.
Important Location Details and Spring 2021 Course Material Information
- Students are automatically opted in to the the First Day Inclusive Access Program (FDIAP), which provides access to discounted materials for select courses through Canvas.
If you do not wish to participate in the FDIAP savings program, you must opt out during
the first week of classes. View this term's FDIAP-eligible courses.
- Textbooks and other course materials can be ordered online at the same price as the merchandise available in-store, with an approximate turnaround
time of two days. Be sure to have your course schedule on hand, as you will need course
numbers to find the correct books.
- All orders over $75 will receive free ground shipping. You can also choose to pick up your online order in-store.
- Online order pick-up will be available on all four campuses (check the Locations and
Hours box on this page for more detailed information, and see the next bullet point
for information on the need for an appointment at the Titusville Bookstore). To pick
up an order, you will need either your confirmation email or a valid picture ID.
- Online order pick-up and other bookstore services on the Titusville Campus are often available by appointment only. Please email sm185@bncollege.com or call 321-433-5055 to schedule a Titusville appointment. Check the Locations and Hours box for details about added walk-in availability during the start of Spring Term.

Additional Information
Required Course Materials List
At least 45 days prior to the first day of class, EFSC posts a list of the materials required for each course offered during the upcoming term. This is in compliance with Florida Statute 1004.085.
The list includes the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) or other identifying information for each required textbook, as well as the title, all listed authors and publishers, the edition number, the copyright date, and the date of publication.
Payment Methods
All EFSC Bookstore locations and the online store accept the following forms of payment:
- Credit Cards: Mastercard/Visa/Discover/American Express
- Barnes & Noble Gift Cards
- Student Financial Aid - Book Vouchers (for select items; "Student Financial Aid" is also available as a payment choice online )
Cash for Books
The EFSC Bookstore buys back used textbooks every day, and this buy-back process is available online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The best time to sell back used books is when final exams begin. The Bookstores will pay you up to 50% of the book’s selling price if professors have assigned it for the next term and if the Bookstore is not overstocked. If the book does not meet these criteria, its buy-back price is determined by the current national demand.
Study guides and workbooks must be in like-new condition, without any writing on the pages. All other books must be in good condition. Some books have little or no monetary value; one-time use, out-of-print books, and old editions are not in national demand and will not be purchased. A valid student ID is required to process all buy-back transactions.
