Purchase Books

TEXTBOOKS
Marist families are required to purchase books for their student(s). To help facilitate this process, we contract with an outside bookstore called Barnes & Noble Education, Inc (BNED). Families will need to access the BNED Direct bookstore bookstore in order to create a booklist.

With the implementation of iPads, Marist is quickly moving to digital books. Students must wait to purchase digital books until they have received their Marist issued iPad.

Steps to creating your booklist and purchasing:

1. Go to the Marist online bookstore by BNED.
2. Click on “Order Books”. 
3. Click on “Continue” under “Pay with Credit Card” 
4. Look at your student’s schedule and click all  subjects that your student will be taking. 
5. Using your student’s schedule, chose the 7 classes then click on “continue”. (Elective courses typically don’t have books) 
6. You will now see the full list of ALL the books your student needs for the year.


At the top of each page there may be a gray message box. Please make sure to read the messages in the gray message boxes carefully. The gray message boxes will provide you with information about whether or not there is a choice between print books or digital books.

Not all ebooks can be purchased from MBS. Some must be purchased from iBooks app, KNO/INTEL app, or directly from the publisher. When this occurs, there will be a link in the gray information box for you to copy and past into your browser. For example:  www.study.intel.com/book

When you copy and paste this into your browser and hit enter, it will bring you directly to the book you need to purchase and the place you need to purchase it from.

With the transition to ebooks, you will have to purchase books from various places. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

Please contact us if you have questions or need help.
