The prospect of beginning your first class — and being told that you need to purchase a list of expensive textbooks — only adds to that. If only there was a way to find free textbooks online. If this sounds like you, you’re in luck — there are many resources for you to do exactly that, all without sacrificing quality or authenticity (as long as you don’t mind being without a physical copy). The best part? Many of these resources often offer lesser-known perks as well, like career and self-help resources. The only thing you’d need is your laptop, a decent note-taking and annotating tool like Preview or Adobe Acrobat, and access to a printer whenever you feel you’d need a physical copy to study from.
