Dear Students,
This is a reminder that the Summer 2026 opt-out deadline for the Sauk Ready Textbook Program is this Thursday, June 4.

If you are enjoying your access to your course materials provided through the Sauk Ready Textbook Program and you would like to remain in the program, no further action is required.

Important if You Choose to Opt Out
If you opt out of the Sauk Ready Textbook Program:

You are responsible for obtaining all required course materials for your classes.

You will lose access to Sauk Ready digital course materials if you elect to opt out and do not pay for individual access.

The Follett Bookstore is still available to help you identify exactly what materials are required for your courses—even if you do not purchase them through the Bookstore.

You can find required and recommended materials using the Textbooks link on the Follett Bookstore website by searching by class or Student ID.

Need Help?
📍 Visit: Follett Bookstore on campus
📞 Phone: (815) 835-6304

More information can be found on the Sauk Ready Textbook Program webpage, including instructions to access to the opt-out portal.

For billing-related questions, please contact or stop by the Business Office.

We encourage you to review your options and decide what works best for you before the June 4 deadline.
