I considered renting or buying them used. Sharing a book with my classmate. Shhh even photocopying.... which I actually have never done. All in all, paying for textbooks is painful. However, I found the neatest thing - my program placed copies of the textbooks in the library.
The library is something I used to go to regularly back in the 1990s. Maybe in the early 2000s. But in the digital age, everything I need is on the internet. The library now is just a place to use their computer labs.
So before you shell out all those dollars to buy the textbook, check your school library. Also note, they might only have an older edition available. You might want to check how the editions changed before you go reading the entire 1st assignment.
I wish my library looks as gorgeous as the George Peabody Library.
No, it looks more like this...
