Chegg

For students and parents alike, the costs of university and college education are becoming almost mind-boggling. With all of the costs associated with courses and fees and dorms and food, being hit with further expensive items can be a shock. And this includes textbooks, which are of course needed for the courses, but are also crazily expensive and another mountain of debt to be tackled. Some textbook rental companies are working to make these costs more manageable, and one of them is Chegg, a U.S. education technology business with a base of operations in Santa Clara, California, they currently boast over three million paid users. Chegg is a main source for finding and purchasing digital and physical textbooks through buying outright or through rental options.

And once they are done with those books, the can then sell them back to the company. Also, Chegg has 24/7 homework assistance available with their unique services Chegg Study and Chegg Tutors.
