#course kit

You should confirm with your prof but usually, yes there should be 1-2 copies on reserves. 

Alternatively you could also look up the articles on the library or Google Scholar. Chances are 90% of the required readings will be on there, in pdf format or whatever. 

Good luck! 

I can’t recall actually, but yes I believe so..? The tax is 5%.

Nah, it should be fine as long as you’ve compared the two course kits and see that they’re similar. I’ve bought old course kits before too and never had an issue.

Just think of it as a chapter from an anthology and cite it as such.

That’s sort of tricky. Course kits are usually a compilation of different articles, so if you’re using a particular article then I’d recommend citing just that.

If you want to cite the overall course kit, I’d suggest treating it like citing a textbook, where you can say the publisher is York University, North York ON.

When you go to class, turn to the person beside you and ask: “can I please photocopy parts of your course kit because mine is on order and won’t be here for another two weeks. You can come with me to the library and I’ll photocopy it there, it’ll just take 2 minutes”. This way you’re not really taking the book away from them, and they’ll be more inclined to say yes since you’re photocopying right in front of them.

If you cannot find anyone at all, then please talk to your professor and explain the situation - maybe he/she can work something out for you.

You can ask them to order more if they’re out.

In the meanwhile, you can ask someone to borrow their course kit and photocopy it while you wait for your course kit to arrive.
