With the Faculty Center, they have the ability to search or browse our massive database of information on textbooks. Faculty can review and research the latest textbook titles within their area of expertise. MBS Textbook already had an extensive graphical, bibliographic database, including cover art, book summary and table of contents. In addition, books are cross-referenced with previous and next editions, and any supplementary materials prepared by the publisher. For each title within the Faculty Center, MBS developed a ranking for textbooks within a subject area based on usage.
Faculty can see how often a book is used, and where.
Throughout the site, users have the ability to access our unique FCNotebook. This Notebook allows faculty to select titles they are interested in and create a list. From here, they can produce an adoptions list to take to your bookstore for ordering purposes. They can also create a list of titles for requesting desk copies. The Faculty Center Network, available to all college and university bookstores, is a resource rather than method of purchasing textbooks.
