LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Neebo announced today that it will rent every textbook to students in-store, online and through mobile devices. The company's innovative program, Rent Everything, is designed to lower the cost of textbooks for students and to promote renting locally to ensure the student is receiving the correct textbook.
The Rent Everything program can cut students costs in half – saving students up to 50% when compared to the cost of buying a new book. Plus, it provides students with a local option where students can expect the same high level of customer service, and because there are no shipping fees or waiting time on errors, students get the right book, at the right price, at the right time.
"More than 80% of students surveyed prefer to rent textbooks from their local bookstore verses an online provider assuming the price is the same," said Steve Clemente, senior vice president, Neebo. "Students want affordable textbooks but they also want to be assured they are renting the correct textbook. The local Neebo bookstore provides students that assurance along with the ability save money by renting every textbook."
Renting textbooks from Neebo is as easy as "Rent, Use and Return." Students simply choose to rent textbooks, use them all semester and return them on or before the last day of finals for the term. All that is required for renting textbooks is a valid debit or credit card.
"During the fall term, the Neebo textbook rental program saved students thousands of dollars," said Clemente. "The program is continuing to grow each term and we look forward to saving students even more money in the future while still providing quality course materials."
Neebo has more than 280 bookstores nationwide renting textbooks to students. In addition, students can go to www.Neebo.com to rent textbooks from their local bookstore.
