How long do I get to keep a rental? 

A rental is not due until the end of the semester. This due date will usually be the last day of finals week, but this may vary. Check the rental sticker on the back or front of your rentals to be certain when you should return your book(s).

I like to buy my books instead of renting because I may need to keep them. Why should I rent? 

We have a Rental+ Program, meaning the full rental price paid can be applied to the purchase price at the end of the semester if you want to keep you book. For example, if the renal price is $25 and the purchase price is $75, you would pay $50 to keep the book at the end of the semester.

Can I rent books or packages with an access code in them? 

Yes, the rental price includes the purchase of the access code, and the book will need to be returned at the end of the semester. 

Can I write or highlight in my rental? 

Standard writing/highlighting in the book is allowed. Excessive highlighting or writing can result in the rental being deemed damaged (See question below). 

Why do I need to hold a debit/credit card on file for a rental? 

We require a debit/credit card to be held on file in case the rental is not returned. 

How do I return my rental? 

It's easy. We don't require a receipt. Return your rentals at the end of the semester to the bookstore or mail them to:
