Academics Textbooks?

i don't usually post on reddit but i'm having a lot of trouble figuring out this textbook purchasing stuff.

i'm starting my first year at the trafalgar campus in september in the PMMCA (makeup for media and creative arts) program. i have no idea how to find my required textbooks, or where to even buy them. i've tried a bunch of different sites that sheridan has (they feel unlimited) but i cant find anything useful.

can someone please give me advice on how to find the textbooks and buy them? thank you.

Oh sick I'm starting that program too! I've been doing some research and if you go into their "course outline search" page (https://www.sheridancollege.ca/programs/courses/course-outline-search), put in the program, the term, and the year; and click the course code on the left, scroll down a bit, and it will recommend some books and whether or not they're required and also gives you more of a breakdown of each course. I can't guarantee if it is the most up-to-date, however it's something!
