Looking for new or used textbooks? Buying used and/or comparing prices is a terrific way to save money! Here are a few online resources you may find useful.

New and Used Textbooks at Amazon.Com

Amazon is one of my favorite textbook sites. You can generally find almost any textbook here as long as it is still in print. Used textbooks through Amazon are generally lower priced, in my personal experience, than those found in bookstores on campus. You do, however, have to pay shipping in many instances.

textbookx.com (Akademos, Inc.)

Textbookx.com is a highly competitive, used textbooks site. You can generally find just about any textbook used in the last year or so here.

Until next time!
