Textbook Rentals
TEXTBOOKS AVAILABLE TO RENT CAN BE VIEWED
WITHIN THE “BUY TEXTBOOKS” OPTION
Many textbooks are offered on our rental program.
Both new and used textbooks are available to rent.
When you look up your textbook requirements on-line for each class, if
the book is available to rent, it will have a separate line with new and used
rental prices, and also a line with new and used purchase prices.
All rental books will need to be returned
no later than the Friday of Finals Week by 4:00 p.m. If the books are not
returned by that time in addition to the rental fee paid, a penalty of 50% of a
new textbook plus a $25.00 service fee will be charged to the student’s credit
card. A complete Textbook Rental Agreement is printed below for your
convenience.
