Rental+ Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I get to keep a rental?
A rental is not due until the end of the semester. Your rental return due date will be printed on the sticker attached to the back of your textbook.
Why should I rent if I normally buy my books?
The Rental+ Program gives you flexibility. The full rental price you paid can be applied toward the purchase price at the end of the semester if you decide you want to keep your book.
Example: If the rental price is $25 and the purchase price is $75, you would only pay $50 to keep the book.
Can I rent books or packages with an access code?
Yes. The rental price includes the purchase of the access code, and the textbook will need to be returned at the end of the semester.
Can I write or highlight in my rental?
Standard writing and highlighting is allowed. Excessive writing, highlighting, or damage may result in the rental being considered damaged.
Why do I need a debit/credit card on file?
A debit or credit card is required to remain on file in case a rental textbook is not returned.
How Do I Return My Rental?
It's easy! No receipt is required. Return your rentals at the end of the semester to the bookstore or mail them to:

Rental Agreement
I am at least 18 years of age. I agree to return rented materials to the Adams State Bookstore on or before the rental return date. The Bookstore is not responsible for reminding me of the rental return date and is not responsible for returns that are lost or damaged in shipping.
I am responsible for the condition of rented materials and payment of fees if materials are lost, stolen, or returned in unacceptable condition. Unacceptable conditions include water damage, missing pages, spine damage, excessive highlighting or writing, and missing supplemental materials.
If rental materials are not returned by the rental due date, the debit or credit card on file may be charged the applicable replacement cost minus the rental amount paid, plus a $10.00 late fee per rental textbook.
I understand unpaid balances may be referred for collection and I may be responsible for applicable collection costs. The Bookstore may contact me using the information provided through phone, text message, email, or other approved communication methods regarding my account.
Replacement copies matching the same ISBN, title, author, and edition may be accepted in place of damaged materials before the rental return deadline.
