Hey guys,

There's an entrepreneurship class in the Comm school and one of the groups is creating a book rental platform that is described below. They wanted me to pass it along.

LITB,
Sara

...Then we have the solution for you!  We are a group of 4th year McIntire students starting a new book rental platform for our entrepreneurship class and we're gathering interest and potential for a supply of books from you -- UVa students!

Our platform would work as follows:
1.) You register the book with us stating that it is "available".
2.) We find a renter for your book and set a minimum price for the rental depending on the length it is rented for (a night, weekend, week, etc) and the popularity of the book. 

Not only does our platform allow you to rent textbooks for a nominal fee, but you can also make money on textbooks you bought for previous semesters and no longer use. 

Please click here to register books collecting dust on your shelves that you would be willing to rent next semester, and feel free to contact the BookBag Team at jke...@virginia.edu if you have any questions!


Thank you and happy studying,

The BookBag Team
