Distance Education Information
The UVic Bookstore strives to process and ship your orders as soon as possible. We ship out course materials for 7 departments. Each department offers 4 to 16 courses and each course has an enrollment of 7 to 150 students. We process and ship course materials for approximately 2,000 students per term.
If you wish to shop in person, distance education textbooks are on the shelves (by course) in the Bookstore. Bring your DE order form with you to confirm that you are picking up the correct material. Please do not hesitate to ask at the textbook information desk if you are having trouble finding what you need.
