Campus Store Textbook Rental Program
The Campus Store supports LCT (low-cost textbooks) with its highly popular textbook rental program that applies deeply discounted rates to over 300 printed textbook titles. The traditional Campus Store rental program is an all-inclusive process that researches faculty adoptions to determine rental availability reducing the retail price on average 45%.
In addition to the traditional rental program, the Campus Store has developed, in partnership with the College, a sponsored rental program that charges only a minimal administrative fee for the rental. To be included in the sponsored rental program, the textbook must be used in high-demand courses with at least 3 sections using the same title and it should be a comprehensive textbook that is typically $50 or more in price. Students pay an administrative fee that ranges between $10 and $40 for a sponsored textbook for the semester. The administrative fee is the only payment required for the textbook. The fee is a fraction of the actual textbook costs (some textbooks have a retail value of over $300).
Along with the rental partnerships, the District has been providing students with Store Grants during the pandemic to help cover the cost of all their course materials.
