Owens Community College students will once again have the opportunity to sell their used or unwanted textbooks without leaving the comfort of their vehicles as the campus Bookstore announces its second annual Fall Drive-Thru Book Buy-Back Program Dec. 8-12.
Owens is one of only a select few academic institutions in Ohio to offer such a service to students. Penn State University, Colorado State University, Utah State University and California State University, Long Beach are among the other schools to provide students the drive-thru book buy-back service.
Blustery winds and cold wintry sleet and rain did not deter hundreds of Owens students from using the Drive-Thru Book Buy-Back Program for the first time during the 2007 fall term.
According to Rebecca Drayton, manager, the bookstore is continuously looking for unique and innovative ways to enhance service for students.
The drive-thru site will be located at the northwest corner of the Audio/Visual Classroom Center parking lot (Lot N). Two designated drive-thru windows will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday, Dec. 8-11, and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Friday, Dec. 12.
Owens is located on Oregon Road in Perrysburg Township. For more information, call 567-661-2021 or 1-800-GO-OWENS, ext. 2021.
