Books & Bookstore
All Lone Star College bookstores are now operating under Barnes & Noble College, a Barnes & Noble Education Company, as of October 1, 2018.
Bookstores
All orders for books and supplies must be placed online. All physical bookstore locations are closed. Payments for online ordering can be made via major credit cards and most forms of financial aid.
Course sections may use different textbooks for the same class type, so please refer to your syllabus, before ordering online to ensure that you purchase the appropriate learning materials. Textbooks, electronics, clothing, and other supplies can be purchased directly online when selecting your campus location.
Please note LSC-University Center textbooks are included with LSC-Montgomery.
