FAQ

The Question

Is there a way I can rent or borrow a textbook for my class until I can afford to purchase one

Our Answer

The library may have some of your textbooks, though most are for two-hour use only. Check out the Textbooks on Reserve page to see how to find out if we have the books you need. 

Some books are available from the Pirates Bookstore as rentals which can be less expensive than buying them outright. Check the Pirates Bookstore page to see if you can rent the ones you need.

Wishing you a good semester,
