Mathematics Textbooks Information

In most cases, every section of a course uses the same textbook. These textbooks are adopted by vote in the district-wide Mathematics Subject Area Committee. Occasionally, one or two sections may pilot a textbook for a course. Courses which require pilot textbooks are identified by section numbers in the PCC Bookstores.

Either scroll down to the appropriate course or choose the course from the following list:
MTH 30, MTH 60, MTH 61, MTH 62, MTH 63, MTH 65, MTH 70, MTH 75,
