Book Aid, Non-Trad Student

Spring Term Book Aid Program

The Book Aid program is offered to UO students at the beginning of fall, winter and spring terms. The UO Women’s Center sets aside part of our budget to buy – and loan out – a textbook that will help students get through the upcoming term. We believe that students should not have to choose between purchasing required texts and basic daily needs, like enough food to eat, or safe housing.

It is intended to help those with financial difficulties and other hardships which make it difficult to attain the necessary resources for success within this system of higher education. For the qualified students who apply, we try to help on a ‘first-come-first-serve’ basis. It is suggested that the textbooks you request total under $50 because of our limited funds.

To clarify, the book aid program is a resource where we purchase textbooks for current UO students, and lend the textbooks for the term. The expectation is that the student will return the textbook by finals week of the term, unless other arrangements are made.

Please apply by 11:59 pm on Friday, April 1, 2022; no additional applications will be accepted after that time. We will contact you via email by Tuesday, April 5, to confirm if we are able to purchase any textbooks for you.  Sometimes we are also able to help you find free electronic versions of your textbooks, to help you manage your scarce fund$.

The mission of the UO Women’s Center is to advocate for the best educational and working environment for women and people of all genders at the University of Oregon. The book aid program is just one of the many resources we provide, and promote.
