Digital Engagement Initiative
Southwest is participating in a convenient and affordable program that delivers the required materials for your course in digital format on the first day of class. The courses participating can be found below. To ensure the lowest cost for students, the courses participating include a course materials fee automatically applied to your student account. This comes at a significantly reduced cost compared to traditional physical textbooks and course materials. If you decide you do not want to purchase the course materials, you can opt out of the program during the first two weeks of each term. If you opt out, you will be responsible for obtaining the required course materials on your own.
To opt out, in the box below select the campus on which your class is located. If you need assistance please contact the Macon Bookstore at 901-333-4227 or email 0167mgr@follett.com.
To Opt-Out
**The deadline to opt out with no charge for online textbooks is by the 14th day of each full term. After the 14th day of the term, you will be unable to opt out and will be charged.**

Frequently Asked Questions
Please Note: The cost of these materials can be paid for by Financial Aid or out of pocket. The cost of materials are NOT covered by TN Promise or TN Reconnect. For more information concerning your student account, please contact the Cashier's Office.
We recommend the student try the e-book before deciding this completely. The e-books are delivered via RedShelf and have many features you cannot find in a traditional textbook. These features include a search function, highlighting, note-taking that saves across devices, and even the ability to create citations automatically. Learn more about the features offered on Redshelf.
However, if you decide you would still like a print textbook many of the courses have a Print Upgrade option. This allows you to get a print textbook copy in addition to the course materials fee, still saving you over the traditional textbook. The price range on these upgrades is $20-$53 and can be found on the site where you access your e-book.
