Is there some other source for the titles used in next semester's classes
other than the campus bookstore. I used to buy my textbooks as far ahead as
I could and finish reading them during the inter-session breaks. But,
lately, textbooks have been moved to closed stacks.
I've also used open stacks to evaluate course offerings at different
institutions. I don't like closed stacks at all.
There are online textbook sellers, but I haven't looked to see how complete
they are in regards to the books specific professors are using in their
classes.
