International Student Textbook Exchange

The International Student Programs' newly created International Student Textbook Exchange (ISTE) is meant to help reduce textbook expenses for international students. However, the ISTE depends on the generosity of the students themselves. Students can choose either to lend their textbooks to the ISTE for a given period or they can donate the textbooks to the library's permanent collection.

Textbooks are loaned out to students on a first come, first served basis. Students who wish to borrow or lend textbooks should email Autumn Bastian (aash@carleton.edu) for further information.
