We realize some of you may purchase books by other means, so it is important to make sure that when buying a book, the ISBN number exactly matches the one on your book list – even numbers different by one digit will mean the incorrect book.

THIS NEEDS UPDATING
Textbook orders of more than $99 purchased between July 12-18 at 6 p.m. PST will receive free shipping from MBS Direct.

We have prepared a short simulation tutorial to walk you through the book-buying process with MBS. A hard copy cheat sheet is also available.

 

Dropping Off Books for MBS Buy-Back: Fri., May 30 from 12-2 p.m.
If you purchased books from MBS last year, you should have received information from them about how to drop your books off at Harker to facilitate MBS buy-back. As a reminder to that notice, drop-off day is Fri., May 30, 12-2 p.m.

Be sure you have printed out the quote MBS provided you, and bring that along with the textbooks to the middle school receiving area or the upper school Rothschild Performing Arts Center lobby.

Any rentals from MBS must be sent directly to MBS. Please direct questions to Matt Ortiz at matt.ortiz@harker.org or 408.553.0356.
