FIRST DAY BOOK PROGRAM Partnership

First Day is a partnership between SPC, Barnes & Noble and the Publishers to bring course materials to students on the first day of class through MyCourses at a discounted rate.

Students can opt out and purchase materials elsewhere if they choose.

How do I use the First Day Book Program?

When you log in to MyCourses, click on course materials and follow the steps to access your eBook and labs.

When can I get my materials?

Materials are available three days before a class starts.

How do I pay?

If you are paying for your books out of pocket, your SPC student account will be billed approximately two weeks after your class begins.
If you are using a 3rd party vendor, the bookstore will invoice the vendor.

How do I opt out?

When you log in to MyCourses, choose to Opt Out of the program. The opt out deadline is one week after the first day of class. If you opt out, you are responsible for purchasing the materials for the course.

What if I have questions?

Contact Sheryl Mark at smark@bncollege.com or Tiffany Harrison at sm8047@bncollege.com.
