The bookstore at my American university is an outpost of Barnes and Noble, charges much higher prices than can be found on Amazon, and in my opinion offers very poor service. Among other things that upset me, they prohibit students from browsing the stacks of textbooks -- instead you are supposed to tell the staff what you want, so they can retrieve it for you.
I prefer to mass e-mail my students in advance of the course and urge them to buy their books for my class at Amazon, used if at all possible.
Is there anything unethical, or that could possibly get me into trouble, about this?
