used textbooksWhether you're in the market for "Introduction to Modern Chemistry" (ugh) or other used textbooks that may be on your college list this semester, naturally check out the well-known book behemoths like Amazon and Barnes & Noble for great bargains.

The latest in making textbooks more affordable is the rent-a-textbook option — so be sure to ask about it at your local college or bookstore for savings up to 70% off the list price of actually buying a new or used edition. Once you're done, you simply return it.

Elsewhere, get help at sites that compare prices, or locate hard-to-find editions. And don't overlook the specialty search engines — or the new online book swaps, where students meet to buy, sell or trade popular titles ...
