In the Classroom

Since its inception in 1965, SAGE Publications has been a leader in publishing high-caliber titles for academic researchers in the social sciences. Building on that solid foundation, we offer a broad selection of textbooks and resources to enrich the classroom experience for undergraduate and graduate students. We continue to set and meet high levels of publishing standards yet understand the importance of keeping textbooks accessible and affordable to students.

Whether you're looking for a core textbook or supplemental course materials, SAGE makes it simple for you to find and adopt the resources to match your curriculum. Our website makes it convenient to browse online by course or series—or search our index of textbooks and forthcoming titles. If you'd like to receive information on titles available in the areas you teach, please contact us.

Several of our titles include ancillary materials, which will streamline your course management. Support products include instructors' manuals; printed and electronic resources, such as data sets and tabular material; and website study sites and test banks for students.

Once you've made your selection, qualified faculty can request a review copy to consider for course adoption. To request your review copy, complete the online request form, call SAGE Customer Care at (800) 818-7243 or (805) 499-9774.

Complimentary Review Copies

Core textbooks designed for use as primary course material and are available on a complimentary review basis to faculty for course adoption consideration. A minimum of 20 students is required to receive complimentary review copies. A limit of two titles per course, and a limit of 10 complimentary review copies per calendar year per faculty member, is required in order for us to be able to continue to provide high-quality texts at affordable prices.

60-Day Examination Copies

Textbooks designed for use as supplemental course materials and are available on a 60-day examination basis to faculty for course adoption consideration. They can be reviewed, risk free, for up to 60 days. Should you decide to use the examination title for your course, please call SAGE Publications Customer Care at (800) 818-7243 within 60 days and provide us with the following information: Name of faculty member teaching the course

• Name of institution
• Course name
• Enrollment
• Name of bookstore through which the adoption order is placed

After notification of adoption to SAGE Publications, we will update your customer record to reflect that the 60-day examination title has been adopted; the text is then yours to keep as a complimentary desk copy for teaching your course.

If you decide not to adopt the text, please choose one of the following options: return the book to SAGE Publications in saleable condition (postage is the responsibility of the customer) along with a copy of your original order confirmation notice; or pay the amount indicated on the order confirmation notice that you received along with the book. If you after the 60-day review period you have not contacted SAGE Publications and notified us of your adoption, or returned or paid for the book, SAGE Publications will send you a reminder invoice statement that your account has an outstanding balance.
