(March 14, 2005 Atlanta, Georgia) -- College textbooks; a necessity for every college student. Today’s typical student has myriad options when it comes to purchasing course textbooks. University bookstores, local bookstores, and online book dealers are just a few options, along with whether or not to buy new or used books; but one alternative in particular that is quickly gaining popularity is that of buying from fellow students.

The down side for the student is that it may be difficult to track down peers with the exact book one is looking for. For university administrators, the down side is a campus covered in “books for sale” flyers; that is, until now.

MyQuad introduces the launch of their latest web application tool for university administrators called, BookXChange. BookXChange allows universities to provide students with a web application specifically geared towards that purchasing of textbooks between students. Students may search for books, buy books, set up their own accounts and post their own books for sale, as well as set up a mailbox for quick communication with other users.

Administrators can edit user accounts, see all past and current transactions, add courses, edit the application, and much more. For more information on bringing the BookXChange application to your students call (866) 8MY-QUAD
