Bookstore

Students will be able to purchase books here in McMinnville about a week before the start of each term.  These books will only be for classes offered in McMinnville. For classes offered online or at another campus students will need to either order books online from the Salem Campus Bookstore and have them delivered to their homes or books can be purchased at the Salem Bookstore.

The first visit to the Salem Bookstore website will require the student to create a bookstore online ordering account by clicking on “Login” then “Register.” Agency-sponsored students need to order their books differently, starting with a phone call to Margaret Byers at the Salem bookstore at 503.399.5131.   

McMinnville Bookstore hours are, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Fridays.  We suggest that students check with their instructors before purchasing books, as some books are not required but only recommended.

Textbook Refunds

Textbooks may be returned for a full refund, with receipt, during the first two weeks of the term in which they were purchased.  A refund check will be issued within two weeks, or the student's credit card account will be credited.

Textbook Buy Back

Textbooks can be returned for cash buy-back at a reduced price, at the McMinnville campus only during Finals Week during regular Bookstore hours, call for times at 503.472.9482.  The Salem campus also offers a longer textbook buy-back program during Finals Week of each term.

School Supplies

The McMinnville campus bookstore sells a useful selection of school supplies including folders, notebooks, pens, pencils and computer USB drives, as well as T-shirts and sweatshirts.

For more information, call 503.472.9482 or visit us at 500 NW Hill Road in McMinnville.
