Information
About This Commodity
Books, new and used and other periodicals should be purchased from a contracted supplier through Show Me Shop whenever possible. This does not include textbooks.
If not available from Show Me Shop and the purchase is less than $5,000 the University One Card may be used. Purchases between $5,000 and $10,000 require a PeopleSoft Requisition. Purchases over $10,000 require competitive quotes, or written bid requests with detailed specifications prepared by UM Procurement.
If you will be making several small purchases, and the total amount will exceed $10,000 in a 12-month period, a competitively bid contract may be appropriate. Contact the Strategic Sourcing Specialist listed for assistance.
