CNM CLASSES IMPORTANT DATES & PICKUP INSTRUCTIONS:
- CNM regular semester classes begin on Aug 26, 2024. APS dual credit students may pick up CNM textbooks beginning Aug 26, 2024 at the CNM Main Campus Bookstore.

You can find out what textbooks you need by logging into the CNM Bookstore website (Select Student Login) or if you filled out our online form, the reply has a breakdown of your required materials.
- APS dual credit students should register for classes as early as possible. Fill out the Where Is My Textbook form to receive a textbook status reply from Library Services BEFORE going to the CNM Main Campus Bookstore.
- Dual credit students are strongly encouraged to register for CNM classes that use the all-digital textbook option called “includED” where the materials are automatically delivered electronically on the first day of class through the CNM Brightspace Portal (access information should be included on your course syllabus provided on the first day of class).
- When picking up textbooks, students should identify as an APS dual credit student and have their CNM ID card ready when picking up their required textbooks.
- CNM Main Bookstore hours vary – check the CNM Main Campus Bookstore hours BEFORE going there.
- If you go to the bookstore without filling out the online form, you may experience delays in receiving your college textbooks. *If you do not receive an email reply, fill out another form.

GENERAL INFORMATION:
- Some courses have “course or lab fees” that students are responsible for paying – Library Services does not cover course or lab fees. We only cover the required textbooks/materials for dual credit courses. If your course has a fee, contact the CNM cashier's office or the CNM bookstore for any required items covered by the course fees. You can look to see if your courses have fees on the CNM Fees and Book Charges web page.
- If you have physical textbooks from previous terms, you may keep them. There are no fines or fees. Online access codes and eBook codes expire on their own.
- Library Services purchases eBook versions of required textbooks whenever possible. If a student requires a physical textbook in lieu of an eBook, a school representative must email valerie.valdez@aps.edu approving the need for a physical textbook.
- To get your textbooks hassle-free, we recommend filling out our online form before doing anything else: Where Is My Textbook. *Replies may take up to 1 business day during the week and 2 days for weekend submissions.
- If you go to the CNM Bookstore after receiving your confirmation reply but the bookstore does not have your authorization info, fill out our online form letting us know ASAP so we can help you!

- Students that drop dual credit classes after receiving textbooks from the CNM Main Campus Bookstore should return the unused or gently used textbooks back to the CNM Main Campus Bookstore. Not returning textbooks for dropped class could result in the cost of the textbook(s) charged to the student’s Synergy account.
