Bookstore Details

Conference Bookstore

Following are the instructions on how to prepare your books for the BRMCWC Bookstore. BRMCWC will deduct a 20% service fee from all sales.

The deadline for making appointments to have your books carried by the onsite bookstore is May 12, 2024.

Due to the limited space in the bookstore, we will not be able to carry non-book items.

If you are shipping your books they must arrive no earlier than 5/22 and marked “Hold for BRMCWC 5/26.” (Shipping charges are your responsibility.)

                  Ship to:

Attn: Melissa Inman
Ridgecrest Conference Center
1 Ridgecrest Dr
Ridgecrest, NC 28770

            Remember, when deciding how many books to bring, you will be responsible for    getting them back home.

            Due to the limited space in the Bookstore, we are asking that you limit the number of titles you place in the store (books only).

Faculty will be limited to 8 titles

Conferees will be limited to 4 titles (We recommend no more than 10 to 12 of each title)

  1. Print and fill out the Bookstore Inventory Form and bring with you to the conference. Be sure to include your name, address, and cell phone number. BRMCWC 2024 Book Inventory
  2. All books should be priced with removable price stickers.
    1. Round price to nearest dollar.
    2. If you plan to have extra books in a box under the table, be sure to have all books priced with removable price stickers (these must be included in the total inventory).
    3. Conferees will be able to use credit/debit cards when purchasing books.
    4. Display space is limited. Bookstore personnel will be glad to rotate stock from beneath the table for you.
  1. Sales Tax – Faculty/conferees are responsible for paying their own sales tax.
  2. E-mail Johndgilden@gmail.com of your arrival date/time and cell phone number (please put BRMCWC Bookstore on subject line) and you will be assigned a time to check your books in. (Notify John if you are a faculty member.) Please check your books in at the bookstore at your assigned time.
  3. Bookstore personnel will confirm the quantity of books with you and keep the inventory form. There will be a sheet for you to sign up for a time to pick up any books at the end of the conference. Please notify the bookstore personnel if you are leaving the conference early.
  4. At your assigned pick-up time, you will need to confirm the book count with the bookstore personnel. The inventory sheet should be signed by both you and the bookstore personnel to confirm quantity sold. (No payment will be made unless the form is completed and signed.)

Please don’t “borrow” any of your books once they are checked in. If you want to have copies of your books for any reason (such as using them in your class, giving to your roommate, etc), please do not include them in the bookstore inventory. This minimizes confusion and you don’t have to remember to bring the books back to the store.
