Examination Copy Policy

We encourage professors to examine Crossway publications in consideration for use as textbooks. Please request examination copies on the form included in the academic catalog or on the school’s letterhead. All requests must include the professor’s name and the name of the course for which the book is being considered.

Only one examination copy will be sent for each professor whose name is listed on the request, regardless of the number of semesters the class is taught.

The examination copy becomes your free desk copy if the book requested is adopted. A book is considered adopted if (1) there are five or more students in the course for which it is used and (2) the Textbook Adoption Notification form is returned to Crossway. This form is included in the academic catalog and a postage-paid reply card will be included in each shipment of examination copies.

If not adopted, you may return the book to Crossway or purchase it at 40% off the retail price of the book (plus shipping charges). An invoice will be sent to you for your examination copies. If the text is adopted, you may return the invoice with the Textbook Adoption Notification form for full credit. Otherwise, you may return it with payment for nonadopted books you elect to keep for personal use.
