Well, we recently won some accolades, and that's kind of cool (named "One of America's Most Promising Companies" by Forbes Magazine, we ranked #17 on the Inc 500 List in 2012, and our CEO just won the Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year). But perhaps the best thing about CampusBookRentals is that our Founder and CEO, Alan Martin, was a student when he founded the company. So CampusBookRentals was born out of the acute pain Alan was experiencing as a student, and knows all too well what it feels like to pay for over-priced textbooks. That experience is what led him to the idea of renting textbooks, and since then we've rented over 1 million textbooks, and served students on just about every campus in the nation.
