After tuition and room and board, textbooks represent one of the largest expenses a student can incur – upwards of $700 to $1,100 on average a year. That’s why once again Barnes & Noble College is offering students a robust textbook rental program that’s easily accessible right at their campus bookstore or bookstore’s website.
Designed to work at every type of institution including 4-year public, private, specialty, and 2-year technical, and community colleges, our 2011 textbook rental program is built around the theme of Your Choice. And, the list of titles available for rent has been expanded by more than 25 percent to help even more students get the books they need at a cost they can manage.
Our textbook rental program leverages our commitment to student insight by delivering a program that meets today’s students’ needs and exceeds their expectations. In fact, 99 percent of the students who tried our rental program said they would use it again.
But students aren’t the only ones who benefit from textbook rentals, schools benefit too. By offering students textbook rentals through the campus bookstore, textbook dollars stay on campus – where they belong.
The Savings Speak for Themselves
Last year, students who rented textbooks at one of the 300+ campus bookstores that offered rentals, saved an astounding $36 million.
For more information on our 2011 textbook rental program, talk to your bookstore manager or regional manager or email us at bncnews@bncollege.com.
