How do books that are easy to access, easy to obtain, and now a lot cheaper sound? Almost sounds too good to be true, but now they’re a reality. UC is now offering all these things at CafeScribe.com. a digital textbook site that allows you to search e books, rent or purchase them, and even share notes among friends. It’s free to try, and totally worth it.
I compared prices from places where students do most of their textbook shopping. I shopped for a communucations book that here at the University would cost you around 160.00 dollars. On Ebay it ran for 216.68, Amazon had it for 116.99, but CafeScribe had it for a staggering 82.99. Students are always looking for a deal and can now look towards CafeScribe first.
Imagine lighter book bags, and the carelessness of not worrying about keeping your book in tip top shape, just to return it for less than half of what you paid for it. CafeScribe and e books are already slowly integrating their way into the lives of college students everywhere. You can even print some of your book out, so that you have hard copies of material needed. They seem to be a thing of the future.
