No, everyone is welcome.

Although we specialize in non-fiction- and study books for the businesses and for students, we do offer a wide selection of books (and stationery) covering mostsubjects.

And if we don't have the book in stock, we can usually get it quickly for you.

In the months before semester start we cooperate closely with teachers and study secretaries to find textbooks for the different courses.

In this process we collect information but we also provide help and advice about new editions and discontinued books etc.

When we have received all the information from teachers and publishing houses we collect it in syllabuslists, so you can see which books and materials you need for your courses.

Thus we guarantee that our syllabuslists and book packages are correct – everything is checked and double-checked with your teacher. Read more about our syllabuslist guarantee here.

We have shops at DTU – Lyngby Campus, DTU – Ballerup Campus and Maskinmesterskolen København. Find addresses and opening hours here

Yes of course. Just enter the name of the university/school you attend and and your student number, and the discount will be subtracted.

 

Please notice that all discounts are already subtracted in the prices of our popular book packages.

Yes, you can. During purchase you just choose to pick it up in one of our shops instead of having it delivered to you. You will receive an email when it is ready for you.

 

Please notice that we handle our orders in batches from 8.30 – 15.00, so it may be a couple of hours until your books are ready for pickup.

  

No, it does not cost more. Whether it is study guides, comic books, reference works, cooking books, you name it – we will order the book for you for pickup in our stores.

The prices you see on this site are the prices you will have to pay – subtracted student discounts of course.

Yes – you can return purchases within 14 days from date of receiving the items. Please note that different rules applies to digital products. Read more about the rules here.

In short: No, you should not purchase ahead.

The teachers’ choice of books changes from year to year; new editions of the books are published etc.

That is why you should only buy books for the semester you are about to start at. Otherwise you risk buying books you will not need and can't use when your start the future course.

No, we only sell new books.

 

But we have a Facebook group for selling & buying used textbooks.    As part of this, you can use on of our shops as a pickup point - in case you are not able to meet up with your seller.  Read more about this service.

It is almost impossible to answer precisely, but we usually recommend you not to.

When a new edition is published, the content is updated. Some text can have been removed and new text can have been added.

No matter how much has been changed, the page numbers (and sometimes the content of the chapters) will be different in the new edition, which can cause misunderstandings between you and your teacher if you do not have the same edition.

Edition: A new edition means that the content of the book has been edited and updated. It is recommended that you read the same edition as your teacher.

Number printed: Sometimes a publishing house produces a new batch of a book. Usually nothing but misprints has been changed, so it does not matter if you do not have the same number printed as your teacher.
 
 

Yes and no.  More and more books becomes available in a digital edition and more are added daily.  Usually this is not as a straight pdf, but a pdf type that requires ebook reader software to use. (This software is free.)

 

Currently we offer 3 types of digital books:  Adobe ebooks, Vital Source ebooks and online books.  You can find more information about our digital offers here.

If we know a textbook is currently used on a DTU course, we pre-subtract the students discount. 

This to make it easier for you as a student - particularly during the period before you start you studies, where you have not yet recieved your students card.Når

We currently have 4 shops at DTU, University of Copenhagen and School of Marine Engineering, plus a term start shop at Erhvervsakademi København (Tidl. Cphbusiness).
