Textbooks

Our textbooks are available to purchase via the Harrisburg Area Community College (HACC)-Lancaster Bookstore. Textbooks may be purchased in person at the HACC-Lancaster Bookstore or online. Bookstore hours are listed on HACC-Lancaster’s website. We’ve outlined the process to obtain your textbook ISBNs and/or order textbooks online below: · Visit the HACC-Lancaster Bookstore website.

  1. Select the campus term from the “Select a Campus Term” dropdown menu on the webpage (i.e. Stevens – Thaddeus Stevens – Fall).

Additional Textbook Information

  • A credit card must be used to pay for your online textbook purchase.
  • If you notice multiple editions of the same book are listed on the website, the instructor has approved multiple editions of the same textbook and you may purchase the edition you prefer.
  • If you are not ordering your textbooks through the HACC-Lancaster Bookstore, use each textbook’s ISBN when ordering through alternative sources.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your textbooks, please email our Academic Affairs Office: petersen@stevenscollege.edu
