Books
As a student at a higher education institution, you will need to aquire a number of course books. You are required to pay for your own books, and the cost varies from semester to semester.
If you would like to purchase used books, you can check out the notice boards at your campus, or search online using sites such as pensum.dk. However, if you do buy your books second-hand, make sure that you are buying the appropriate edition. You can also look for books at the University College Absalon library on each campus. Here you can borrow books and other materials, and ask for help with research.
Student discount on books
University College Absalon cooperates with the bookseller Academic Books. Through their website, you can find the readings for your current courses, and purchase the books with a minimum 10 % discount. The books are delivered to your home address, or may be picked up from the Academic Books 'book-bus' that tours all University College Absalon campuses in the first weeks of the semester.
Also note that other booksellers in Denmark may offer a discount to students with a valid student card.
Libaries
There is a library on all campuses, where you can borrow books and other materials, and ask for help with research.
