The UPEI Bookstore is the place for all of your textbook and course material needs. We have all the textbooks you need for your classes. We also carry your lab manuals, graph paper, lab coats, pens, binders and everything else you need to get ready for class.

Visit the Get Your Booklist page for your personal book list for your registered courses.

You can also browse and purchase your textbooks by course name through our new textbook search page. We'll be adding additional textbooks and other UPEI Bookstore items to our new store throughout the semester.

We do sell Used Textbooks at the Bookstore and you will find them on the shelves along side the new textbooks. The used books are marked with a yellow sticker on the side of the book and the price is marked on the back with an orange sticker. To find out more about our Used Book Buyback Program click the link.

We carry electronic access codes and e-books for some of your courses, these are located at the front cash counter or can be purchased online see details below. We also have the clickers used for first year Psychology, Science and other courses at the front cash as well.

If you do not see a textbook needed for one of your courses please ask our staff for help. The book could be sold out or in some cases the book has not arrived at the Bookstore yet.
