    This is a good place to look for books, and they offer free shipping and in some cases, no tax.

    As far as getting money for books, try applying for scholarships. Here's a link to a page that may help you get started finding grants and things to help you out-

    if you get a job, the books that you need to purchase can be really cheap if you take some of the suggestions

    (1) buy your books used on amazon, just enter the ISBN #

    (2) share books with friends, ie : if you have taken a course and then next semester your friend is taking a course, lend them your book and ask to use their used books, or, offer to "rent" them, ie i've loaned a friend a book when they bought me lunch

    (3) my university has a print shop next door to it that sells illicit photocopied books, you have to use covert and discrete language, but you can get a copy of a 200.00 text book for 30.00.

    There are many scholarships given out by government and other organisations every year. You can try for some online government scholarships or grants. Fill up online forms and see if you are selected for the scholarship.
