Examination Copies

Our process for exam copies is as follows:

  2. The book(s) you request will be sent on an approval basis, billed at the retail price less your professional discount of 20%.
  3. After 60 days you will have three alternatives:
    1. If you decide to use the Herald Press book(s) as a textbook, you should return the duplicate copy of the invoice with the following information:

      1. the name of the bookstore where the books will be purchased,
      2. the name of your college or university,
      3. the department or course in which the book(s) will be used.

      Upon receipt of this information, the charge will be cancelled and the book(s) will become a complimentary desk copy.

    2. If you want to keep the book(s), but not use it as a textbook, please pay the invoice as billed.
    3. If you do not want the book(s), return the book(s) with the duplicate copy of your invoice and the charge will be cancelled.
