The New York Times had an article today about Chegg.com, a website that allows you to rent textbooks.
The service sounds very intriguing, and you may find it helpful. However, there may be some drawbacks. For example, they seem to charge somewhat high prices for the rental (sometimes 50% of the full purchase price); you may be able to find better deals for purchase elsewhere; and a quick Google search has found some customer service complaints. But I recommend that you look into the service and make your own decisions about it; they may be able to save you some money.

I used Chegg for book rentals several times throughout my college career (I just graduated). I didn't use them exclusively - just for books I knew I wouldn't want to keep after the class was over, and wouldn't have much resale value on campus. I was extremely pleased with the service, and only had one incident with them. I didn't receive a book I ordered, but as soon as I called them, a refund check was sent to me. I would definitely say that I recommend Chegg as an alternative to the campus bookstore.
