Does anyone know of any other sources that usually have a lot of IT texts at reasonable prices? At the bookstore rate the textbooks will be more than his tuition and new laptop combined! Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Did you check the used textbooks on Amazon? As for alternatives to those you listed, I would look here (textbooks.com generally has a pretty good selection of both new and used books.) You might also consider looking for e-Books which are usually about 50% of the price of new. Some good sources for those are CourseSmart, VitalSource, and Explana.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
