Custom Courseware

Custom Courseware (aka Coursepacks) is the production of course materials, such as notes, chapters of books, articles and lab materials, designed by you for your course and distributed through the Concordia Bookstore.


Note: ALL aspects of the production of custom courseware (ie. coursepacks, lab manuals) are handled internally through the Bookstore.
Copyright Clearance and production are no longer being outsourced to third parties, therefore all inquiries relating to coursepack production should be sent directly to the Bookstore at:

coursepacks@concordia.ca

Submission target date for the Summer 2012 Semester:   Friday March 2, 2012.

Regarding coursepack orders submitted after that date – we cannot guarantee that the coursepacks will be available for the first week of school.

We will not refuse any late course pack orders, however we will require sufficient time to process the order. This includes scanning and cleaning of the material, copyright declarations, printing, etc.

If you submit a late coursepack - you're students should be made aware that it likely will not be available at the start of the term.


Custom Courseware packages (coursepacks) can include almost anything you want for your course. Some examples include:

  • your own notes or works in progress
  • individual chapters of books
  • out of print texts
  • course outlines
  • magazines and newspaper articles
  • tables of contents
  • graphs, charts and illustrations li>lab instructions
  • cartoons and photographs
  • lecture outlines

With custom courseware it is also easy to update your package with the latest information and articles long before new editions of textbooks are printed.

All you need to do to create your own custom courseware package is to provide us with the original material and we will secure the necessary copyright permission.

You can now provide your students with a courseware package customized specifically for your course with the same ease as you prepare your own course materials for instruction.


To submit a coursepack request, and to identify included material for which
we must clear copyrights, use this form.


Send your coursepack and copyright questions to: coursepacks@concordia.ca


It would greatly assist us if you were to forward your table of contents in a Word document format electronically to coursepacks@concordia.ca, by having this information electronically, we can more easily make adjustments for page numering in the contents as required.
