We don't have a policy and book selling is common here. We get multiple book
sellers around, each week, it seems.
I used to have ethical problems with the practice but now my concern is how
much the practice, given it is widespread, actually increases the cost of books
to the students. It seems to me these books that the publisher gets no money
for would be one more pressure to raise the costs of the books. But I could be
wrong. Anyone know of any data on this issue?

We are looking at our current policy toward faculty selling desk and review
copies of books to buyers. Can you share with me (off-list if you don’t want to
burn one of your three posts to the lists for the day) your school’s policy (if
any) and what you think about it. Thanks,
