The Compton Center Bookstore offers textbooks for purchase, in addition to school supplies.

The Bookstore accepts Visa, MasterCard and Discover. Personal checks are accepted for the amount of purchase, dated for the date of purchase and presented by the account holder only; no parental or third-party checks accepted.

Students are responsible for following the refund policy, found at the Bookstore and in the Student Life Office.

The Bookstore conducts "Textbook Buyback" during the first and last week of the fall and spring semesters. Students can receive up to 50 percent of the purchase price if the textbook has been requested for a future semester; the book is not sold as new-only (fill-in or perforated pages) and the Bookstore is in need of additional copies.

The Bookstore is located between the Student Life Office and the Cafeteria.
