How To Buy an Out-of-Print Book

If you can’t find a University Press of Colorado book at http://www.upcolorado.com, the book may have gone out of print. You can order many of our out-of-print books from Books on Demand, a reprinting service. Books on Demand is on the Internet at http://wwwlib.umi.com/bod/. If you can’t find the book there, try searching for it at online booksellers that stock out-of-print books, such as Alibris (http://www.alibris.com), or ask the staff at your favorite brick-and-mortar used bookstore to help you locate a copy.

Textbooks

Textbooks published by the University Press of Colorado typically remain in print for several years before new editions appear. In some cases in which frequent updates are required to keep a book current, the University Press of Colorado publishes annual supplements, which are available separately at a low cost, keeping the original edition useful and up to date for many years. The University Press of Colorado can not predict the lifetime of a single edition, save to say that most books that appear in revised and updated editions do so after several years in print. While books sometimes include supplementary materials such as audio or data CDs, none are considered "bundled." Any supplementary materials are considered part of a book's production and pricing and the book is considered by the authors to be incomplete without such supplementary materials.
