Dual credit textbooks for APS students
Please see the below information for IMPORTANT UPDATES to the current CNM textbook process. It is changing starting Spring semester 2027.
Important update regarding textbook procedure process for APS dual credit students.
Starting Spring 2027, CNM’s BooksPlus program will replace current textbook procedures, delivering all required materials on or before the first day of class. The CNM Bookstore will email APS dual credit students instructions through their CNM student email regarding accessing digital courseware through Brightspace or using a QR code to pick up physical materials in-store.
What this means for you:
No Request Form Needed: The "Where Is My Textbook?" form is permanently deactivated. Contact the CNM Bookstore or BooksPlus support for access or textbook issues. CNM Bookstore main phone number is: 505-243-0457.
APS Library Services no longer coordinates dual credit textbooks: The CNM bookstore is taking over as the primary source of textbook information, answering questions and handling textbook and access issues. Contact the CNM Bookstore or BooksPlus support for access or textbook issues. CNM Bookstore main phone number is: 505-243-0457.
Accessing Materials: Digital materials will be available in your Brightspace account by the first day of class. If physical materials are also required, students will receive a QR code via email letting them know when they can go to the CNM Bookstore to pick up those items.
Cost Coverage: APS Library Services will continue to cover the cost of the BooksPlus program for APS dual credit students.Specific materials provided depend on the requirements for each course.
- Printed textbooks
- eBooks
- Digital course materials
- Publisher access codes
- Online homework platforms
- Lab manuals
- Course kits
- Uniforms and scrubs
- Other required course materials
However, if students have added or dropped classes and they see any charges on their student account, they should reach out to the CNM Bookstore because they handle all student required class materials. Please note that although required materials are covered by APS, students are responsible for course/lab fees if required.
This textbook process is changing to the BooksPlus Program for all students attending CNM. There is an opt out feature intended for regular CNM students BUT APS dual credit students should NOT select that as an option.
Students who inadvertently opt out:
- Will not receive course materials through BooksPlus
- Must obtain all required textbooks and course materials on their own
- May lose access to digital publisher content provided through BooksPlus
Additional information about opt-out dates and instructions will be provided before each term begins from the CNM Bookstore via the student's CNM email account.
APS dual credit students should NOT select to opt out, as this will delay material access and trigger direct billing from CNM. If students have questions or concerns, they should reach out to the he CNM Bookstore or BooksPlus support at 0402mgr@follett.com
If you have additional questions, please contact the BooksPlus support team at or visit the CNM BooksPlus FAQ page or reach out to your high school counselor.
