Princeton University undertook a comprehensive and competitive search for a modern bookstore solution that would give students seamless access to affordable textbooks and digital content. eCampus.com, celebrating 25 years in the course materials industry, offered an innovative and customized approach to providing affordable course materials to their more than 8,500 students.
Beginning in summer of 2024, students can order textbooks and course materials selected by Princeton faculty through a custom-branded online storefront backed by the top-rated customer service team in the industry. With this shift, eCampus.com will provide options to order required materials in multiple formats including digital, rental, new, or used, as well as a variety of shipping and delivery choices. Students will be provided with a secure and easy online ordering experience using Single Sign-On to the customized storefront. These multiple purchasing options provide Princeton students the flexibility to choose the format and cost that best aligns to their needs. Additional student perks include free shipping options and a price match guarantee to bolster confidence that Princeton’s official online bookstore is the best option for low-cost materials shipped straight to campus.
Beyond student benefits, Princeton faculty have the opportunity to select content in various formats through eCampus.com’s robust online textbook adoption tool. Within the intuitive platform, faculty can research content, compare titles, evaluate costs, and select materials aligned to the academic goals of every course. eCampus.com actively engages with faculty throughout the school year, offering personalized support while also seeking continuous improvement through customer feedback channels aimed to improve efficiencies and optimize the entire course materials adoption process.
