Every semester, we've seen our customer base grow, and this provides us with even more titles to meet the demands of this surging rental industry.

The CampusBookRentals.com integration was completed using the Alibris E-commerce Integration Framework, a standardized, XML-based technology that allows partners to access Alibris's seller network in highly flexible and scalable ways. The Alibris E-commerce Integration Framework allows partners to control the brand and customer experience, which provides buyers with a seamless website shopping experience, including integrated search, cart, and checkout processes.
