I agree. Illegal downloads are never the answer!

If you go to school on campus, check to see if the library keeps copies of text books in the reserve section. Different schools have different policies about that ranging from multiple copies of each book in the reserve section to only books that are specifically put on reserve by the professor or requested by students (usually months in advance.)

Yes Julie, that is a good idea. I've done that myself. Some students who are not on campus may also be able to check out library books. I took some online classes at East Carolina University and their library would send library books to online students via FedEx. They covered the cost of shipping both ways. I don't know how many other colleges do this, but it is worth checking out.

Certainly textbooks are very expensive and it can be difficult for students to be able to afford them and surely you provided us very useful idea. Thanks for share.
