Class Book List
We urge you to use PolyList to research and submit your class book lists. Look for the PolyList instructions and link in the left-side index. You may use the simpler Class Book List Form in the left-side index if you do not have a MyCalPoly account or if you are uncomfortable with PolyList.
To access the on-line class book list form, click on Class Book List Form in the left-side index. Do not start the on-line form if you cannot complete the form now. Your entries are not saved when you exit the on-line form. Submit a separate class book list for each course. If book assignments are not the same for all sections, you should submit a separate book list for each set of assignments.
Step 1:
Enter general information for the class book list. If you need to list more than ten course items or more than five supply items, submit multiple class book lists. Note MULTIPLE BOOK LISTS in the comments field for each book list. Enter STAFF as instructor if multiple sections have multiple instructors.
