Books and other materials
Book sale
During your courses, study books are often used as a source of information. Typically, the study association supplies books at a discount to members. However, due to unfortunate circumstances, de Chemische Binding is unable to provide books at the moment. Until the matter is resolved, you can buy these study books yourself through an online store or via a bookshop. Make sure to keep an eye on the study associations website to see when books are being supplied again. The study association also provides the option to buy the obligatory lab coat and lab goggles, which is explained below as well.
Which study books do I need?
You can find extensive information on the courses of your degree programme in Ocasys (please consult the manual for Ocasys in the document “IT instructions” of your information package). For each course the obligatory literature is stated, which is often a study book. In our bookstore all the books you will need for each course are already shown, so you do not have to search for them yourself. This holds for each year and period of each programme.
For the sake of convenience, we are providing you here with a list of the books that you will need in period 1A for the Chemistry/Chemical Engineering degree programme:

Sale of Lab coat and goggles
You may purchase a lab coat and lab goggles with us as well. The lab coat costs €25,- for members or €30,- for non-members. Furthermore, o nly members are allowed to store their lab coats in the lab room. Normal lab goggles cost €6,- and big lab goggles (which you can pull over your own glasses) cost €10,- for both members and non-members. The big lab goggles are mandatory for anyone who wears contact lenses or glasses, since it is forbidden to wear lenses in the lab. These items can be purchased on the Faculty Introduction Day, which is one of the reasons why it is mandatory to attend this day. The welcome letter from the study association explains how you should sign up for the Faculty Introduction Day.
