You have several options to purchase textbooks:

A.  While we have changed several of the textbooks that we are going to use, you may inquire of former LNJA students as to their willingness to sell their textbooks.

B.  Order new books straight from the publisher.

C.  Search by the ISBN and order online from a number of used book sellers.  Enter the ISBN number in your browser and you should have a lot of options.  Search for the best price and best condition as well as from a seller near California.
