Textbook Warehouse Ordering Information

The Spring Branch Independent School District Textbook Warehouse is located at 1051 Witte Road, Building C, Houston, TX 77055. Phone number is 713-365-5781 and fax number is 713-464-8916.

Procedures for Ordering Textbooks
Placing an order to the Textbook Warehouse is accomplished by completing a Textbook Requisition Form

• Please type. (Clearly legible handwritten copies will be accepted.) Include the International Standard Book Number (ISBN), grade level, title, quantity needed and whether item ordered is a teacher edition. Include a campus administrator's signature.
• Send the completed Textbook Requisition Form to the Textbook Warehouse as an email attachment or by fax. Fax orders are encouraged. The fax number is 713-464-8916. It is recommended that you keep a copy for your records.
• If the order is faxed, please do not send a duplicate in the mail as this will cause a second order to be entered and shipped.
• Back orders for any item not filled on the requisition will be filled as soon as the item is received in the Textbook Warehouse. Please do not re-order the item as this will create duplicate orders.
• Textbooks are delivered on a daily basis as orders are completed. The Textbook Warehouse delivery driver will drop off textbooks at the main office or at a designated textbook location.

Procedures for Receiving Orders
When textbooks are received, a count of the boxes is to be made by the person receiving the order. The number of boxes is written on the "shipping log" and the receiver signs for the shipment. The Campus Distribution Report, included with each shipment, should be signed and returned to the Textbook Warehouse within 10 school days from receiving the shipment. This information is used to verify the campus inventory.

Damaged or missing books found after opening the boxes must be reported to the Textbook Warehouse within 48 hours of delivery so that corrections can be made. Note the damaged or missing item on the Campus Distribution Report and fax it to the Textbook Warehouse at 713-464-8916.

Return of textbooks to the Textbook Warehouse for any reason must be preceded by notifying the Textbook Warehouse personnel. Complete the appropriate packing list (i.e., surplus packing list or rebinds packing list) and enclose in each box. Place the appropriate label on the end of the box to identify the contents of the box as surplus or rebinds and contact personnel in Textbook Services regarding pick up of the boxes. Requests to have books picked up from the campus may be emailed or faxed.

Contact person is Flora Tiedt, Assistant Administrator for Textbooks and Records Management
