eBooks and the Universal Digital Textbooks Program
Developed by MBS and leading academic publishers, the Universal Digital Textbooks (UDT) Program adds thousands of downloadable eBook titles to the traditional new and used print textbook mix. This product brings students a digital alternative that was previously only available to them online and outside of the bookstore. Now, with this pioneering program, students are offered a high-tech money-saving alternative—on your bookshelves alongside the print versions.
SparkNotes
SparkNotes products are the fastest selling supplements in today's educational
materials marketplace, and justifiably so as they present need-to-know
information clearly and concisely, and they're written by top students and
recent graduates who are experts in their fields of study. At a cost to you of
60% off retail, and including a customized merchandising plan tailored to your
campus, SparkNotes benefit bookstores as well as students.
Textbook
Trader and Bulletin Board
Just because you don't see a title listed in our wholesale database doesn't
mean that it doesn't have value. Late-breaking title requests come into MBS
every day, and Textbook Trader and Textbook Trader Bulletin Board-unique FREE
resources accessible through the MBS Service Center-are the way to keep up with
them.
