How to Order an Instructor Desk Copy:

If you don’t have a desk copy or if you need an updated desk copy, please go to the publisher’s website and request a copy as soon as possible. Please have the desk copy sent to your home address.

You will be able to search each site to look for the sales rep for our school for your particular subject. When you request a desk copy, it’s helpful to both you and the rep if you follow these steps:

  • Contact the rep by sending them the name of the book, the author, and the 9 digit ISBN.
  • Include your course number and course name, as well as the number of students that have already registered. You can check that number by going to My Drury. 
  • Request that the desk copy be mailed to you rather than the main campus. Be sure to explain that you’re teaching a course away from the campus and you live outside of Springfield. If they must ship to Drury, ask that it come to the attention of the Online Education Department. 
  • Follow up with the rep if you have not received the desk copy after one week.

Please don’t delay in requesting your desk copy.
