BOOKLIST for BSN Program: Prelicensure Option Spring Quarter (January 4, 2021)

The following outlines the resources (textbooks, websites, media, etc.) utilized in each course. Required resources are necessary for academic success: you must obtain and study from them to succeed in a course as outlined in the course syllabus. Recommended resources provide material that will boost your academic performance in that course but are not always necessary for academic success. Faculty may or may not use recommended resources in class or during clinical. Please confer with course faculty prior to purchasing recommended resources. Use International Standard Book Numbers (ISBN) to identify the books below with any book vendor. Rented, used, and electronic formats of the resources may be available at a reduced cost to the student. A dagger (†) preceding a title

indicates the resource is appropriate for renting. A keyboard symbol (⌨) preceding a title indicates the resource is available electronically/online. When renting a textbook, it may not include CDs, DVDs, or access codes for other protected electronic content, even if the book had those features when sold new. These features may be required for successful completion of the course in which the book is used. If you believe a textbook is supposed to include a disk or an unused access code, check before renting. Galen is not responsible for purchases made in error. Textbooks/resources may be used in multiple courses throughout the program. Students should verify this information via the booklist prior to purchasing/renting or returning/reselling. Galen encourages students to retain textbooks/resources as reference materials to assist throughout their nursing career.
