    Hi. does anyone know what books I would need for First Year Arts, Semester 1 (only) of Psychology and Anthropology? and if there are people selling them, also?

    I'd rather not wait until the lecturers tell me because the only days I have free to buy books are the following few days, and also I'd like to be able to get them in the library if possible. Thanks in advance.

    If you end up having to buy these new then buy from any other bookshop than the one in JH, they're much cheaper elsewhere.

    En bonne forme is used right up to third year so you're probably best off buying it new, unless you can get a like-new copy from someone who's just graduated, but I know my own copy is written in and highlighted and has notes written in and such so new would probably be best.

    Is french grammar and usage just a suggested book? It's just a grammar and verb pack which you can get much for cheaper in different forms. I have a verb pack and grammar book (two separate books) that I got for like €7 each which do the job perfectly. Ask Michelle the french secretary and she'll help you out and let you kjnow what's compulsory and what isn't.

    Before I left Maynooth in May there was second hand copy of Les exercises de grammaire in the second hand bookshop run by the SU in the SU building. Have a look there for the others too, loads of french literature there because it's only needed for one semester.
