All sections of Sociology 101, SO 101 use an OER (free) online textbook. Check with your instructor to be sure, but usually all sections use the same book: Introduction to Sociology 2nd edition. It's an ebook that is designed to be read/used on a computer, phone, or tablet, but you have options if you want a print copy:

1. You can print it yourself, either at home or on campus in the library or Learning Commons (printing is free for students; we recommend printing no more than 50 pages at a time to keep from confusing/jamming the printer). To print, download the PDF version and then print from the PDF. 

2. The library has a print copy on reserve. You can use it inside the library for up to 3 hours at time.

3. You can purchase a print copy like the library's from the OpenStax website. (Look for the Purchase a Print Copy option in the Get the Book menu). Unfortunately the campus bookstore does not stock print copies.
