One of the biggest (and unavoidable)
expenses of student life can
be textbooks. Thanks to the new

financial sting of buying costly
textbooks has been slightly alleviated,
making college life that much
more affordable.
According to Syrus Yarbrough, spokesperson for CheapBooks.com, "This is the first known site of its kind … (It) allows users to search countries such as the US, Canada, Mexico, the UK, Germany, France, Australia, South Africa, etc. for books and ebooks." What this means for students is textbook comparison-shopping just got a whole lot easier.
To search for textbooks all you need is the 10- or 13-digit ISBN, the number that identifies the book, which can be found through Fanshawe's online bookstore catalogue. Simply enter the ISBN into the search function and you will be presented with a range of available results. The results will include information such as the format (book or ebook), new or used condition and the cost including shipping.
"CheapBooks remains the only textbook price comparison site with full-time customer support staff during normal business hours," explained Yorbrough. The website's range of customer services is always expanding, and CheapBooks is currently working towards providing Skype service to all international customers.
