Skip to main content Doña Ana Community College Program Overview DACC brought the Books 4 Less program to campus in Fall 2022, making it easier for students to access required course materials. By partnering with the DACC Bookstore, students get all required print and digital materials for a flat fee of $28 per credit hour. Materials are available up to 10 days before classes begin, helping students arrive prepared and stress-free. Students can opt out of the Books 4 Less program (opens opt-out portal) if they prefer to purchase materials independently before the census date. Monitor your NMSU email for semester-specific course material updates. Campus-Wide Access All students have access to course materials on the first day of class. Digital materials are integrated directly into Canvas for instant access, while physical materials are available at the bookstore. Charges are included with course registration, offering predictable costs and cost savings. This program supports course success, reduces withdrawals, improves retention, affordability, and equity by ensuring all students have the same materials from day one. Digital — via Canvas Digital materials are integrated directly into Canvas for instant access on any device, including iPads from the DACC Apple Xcite Initiative. Physical — at the Bookstore Print materials are ready at the bookstore up to 10 days before classes start, so you never fall behind. Predictable Costs Charges are included with course registration — no surprise expenses or delays mid-semester. Equity & Retention Supports course success and reduces withdrawals by ensuring every student starts with identical materials. Student Testimonials From Fall 2025's Follett Feedback Survey: I really like how being a first-year student this process made it super easy to figure out how to get my book and helped me focus my funds towards paying for my dorm. I would rate the overall success of the Campus-Wide Access program positively. It made textbooks more affordable and easier to access for students, reducing financial stress and ensuring everyone had the materials needed from day one. 10/10 it gives students the textbooks required for class and makes the process of getting them easier since we can choose online material.
