Word order in Farsi
I have a sentence in my textbook. It is this:
کتاب فدوشی های زیادی روبروی دانشگاه تهران هستند.
Is it correct to change the word order like this...
روبروی دانشگاه تهران کتاب فدوشی های زیادی هستند
?
What possibilities do I have for the word. order?

yeah, that's right.
generally speaking, you have a lot of options when it comes to the word order, jut try to keep the main verb at the end. In this sentence you have 3 elements:
"کتاب فروشی های زیاد" your subject
and "رو به روی دانشگاه تهران" which is your adverb
and finally "هستند" which is your main verb.
you have to keep your main verb at the end, so only two options remain for you. Bring the subject first or bring the adverb first.
When your sentence is longer and has more elements, you have more options.
