Probably, but they are also probably illegal. If you have something like a Kindle you might consider checking to see if the Kindle versions would be cheaper than the paper versions. If not, look into renting your textbooks instead of buying them outright, or look for cheap used versions on places like the Amazon.com marketplace or Half.com.
the most success I've gotten in terms of finding free material in textbooks is googling a phrase from a book and putting quotations around it so you search for the exact phrase. Sometimes a website will have either large sections of the book available to look at, and once or twice I found a pdf.
The only other option is looking into something such as the amazon textbook rental program. You can rent pdf's of books (even if you don't have an e-reader) for a much lower cost than buying it. Just something to consider.Are there any ways to download free college/university textbooks?
Check the website of your university library in case they're available there. In my uni (in Australia) the university library has some book chapters in PDF. These PDF chapters are required reading in the uni courses.
I don't think book publishers upload their books in the internet for free access. The 'free textbooks' may be illegal.Are there any ways to download free college/university textbooks?
Unfortunately I doubt you'll find the PDF file, or at least if you did I wouldn't trust downloading it..
I suggest chegg.com. You can rent books from there and it tells you how much you save buying from them at the end, which is always fun. I bought my books from there all rented for this fall semester and spent 144 dollars, and I saved over 300 bucks .
There are usually electronic versions of textbooks but they are not free. Unless you download them illegally, they won't be free.
I also agree you use chegg. I recomend it to every one i meet going to college it is awsome!
WOW, I have never thought about that...
Do you have an e-books?
