No Textbooks or Resources Reported for Summer 2020

Office of the Registrar

Herky Hawk:

You are receiving the following email as textbooks and/or resources have not been submitted for the following Summer courses and you are listed as the primary instructor:

ABCD:1234:XYZ1

A similar email was sent to all departmental administrators within your department and/or college on February 11. If you or your departmental administrator have placed a textbook or resource order with the bookstore for these courses and feel that this message was sent in error, please contact the bookstore. Some departments utilize administrative staff to collect and place textbook orders for instructors. Others ask instructors to place their own orders. Those decisions continue to be made by the department and are not impacted by textbook and resource enhancements in MAUI/MyUI.

As a reminder, textbook orders are not replicated and thus require a new order to be placed each semester.

Deadlines

The Office of the Provost encourages instructors to place their textbook order by Early Registration with either the Iowa Hawk Shop/University Bookstore, Iowa Book, Prairie Lights, or the ISBA Law Bookstore as the result of an electronic data upload process. 

Summer Deadlines

All textbook and resource orders should be finalized in MAUI by Early Registration (March 9, 2020), but in no event later than four weeks prior to the start of the semester (April 20, 2020) in which the textbook is to be used by students.
