We are excited to provide a new and improved website experience for Fairchild Books customers, instructors, and students. Beginning May 1st 2023, Fairchild Books products including our printed textbooks, etextbooks, and STUDIOS will be available for purchase and to request as exam copies from bloomsbury.com. All ebook purchases and ebook exam copy requests will be fulfilled by the new Bloomsbury etextbook Store in partnership with Vitalsource. Fairchild Books remains your resource for high quality publishing and support for Fashion and Interior Design education.

Why is the Fairchild Books website changing?

We are dedicated to improving the experience of teaching and learning with Fairchild Books textbooks and online resources. Benefits of the new Bloomsbury/Vitalsource etextbook platform include:

• Better searchability
• Improved ebook reader
• Accessibility for All - support for assistive technologies and AA WCAG conformity

What will happen to my account on Fairchildbooks.com?

Existing Fairchild Books Store customers will be able to access your account on bloomsbury.com with your current username and password. Any exam copies or instructor resources that you have requested previously will be available when you login to our new platform.

What will happen to the STUDIOs and etextbooks that I have purchased?

The STUDIOs and etextbooks that you already have access to will continue to be available from your account on Fairchildbooks.com. After May 1st, however, we encourage you to access your existing resources from bloomsbury.com [get link].

Where can students go to purchase textbooks and resources for your courses?

From May 1st onward, you can purchase any Fairchild Books printed textbooks, STUDIO, or textbook + STUDIO packages from bloomsbury.com [add link]. Purchases of ebooks and etextbook + STUDIO packages will be fulfilled by Vitalsource in partnership with Bloomsbury.

Will I lose access to the etextbooks and STUDIOS that I purchase before May 1st from Fairchildbooks.com?

No, you will continue to have access to any etextbooks or STUDIOs purchased from Fairchildbooks.com. Our current website will run alongside the new Fairchild Books hub on Bloomsbury.com [link] to help you continue your studies without interruption.
