No credit is given for items damaged by the shipping agent. If a carton

Academic Examination/Desk Copy Policy
We encourage professors to examine St Vladimir's Seminary Press titles for use as required or supplementary course textbooks. All requests must include the name and title of the professor(s) teaching the course, the name of the institution, the SVS Press title(s), the name of the course for which each title is being considered, and anticipated enrollment for each course. One examination copy may be requested per professor per course, regardless of the number of semesters the course is taught. SVS reserves the right to refuse an examination copy. The examination copy becomes your free desk copy if the title is adopted for classroom use. If not adopted, the examination copy may be returned for full credit or purchased at 50% off the retail price (plus shipping charges). An invoice is included with each examination copy you request and may be used to return payment for texts not adopted, which you elect to keep for personal use. A book is considered adopted if it is a required course text, the students in the course number five or more, and you notify us of the title adoption by faxing us on your institution's letterhead.
