How Do You Get Free College Textbooks?
The cost of college textbooks can be surprising and frustrating to a student already burdened with high tuition costs and assorted college fees. The source for most college textbooks is the college bookstore, where students often find high-priced new textbooks and moderately-priced used books. There are still a few ways that college textbooks are available free of charge. Visit your college’s library at the beginning of the term, preferably a few days before the term begins. Bring a list of the textbooks required for your classes with author names and publication dates included. Look on your library’s catalog for the specific textbook titles that you need. Make sure to type the titles correctly and match author names and edition numbers. Ask a librarian to confirm if the library owns the textbook. Sometimes academic libraries will have copies of textbooks for certain college courses. The copies of these books may circulate, meaning they can be checked out. Other copies may be available
