Yes you have to do it yourself but if you have a friend who's family owns a copying center, then you can ask him for help. I still remember when I was in BCIt, one of my friend's dad owned a copy center, he copied all our textbook for us for small charge and even binded for us.
no bor... i found a place... a block west of burrad on broadway
they can do the photocopying for you~~~
its like... 10cents per page~ if you want binding its like +7 dollars
so... if its a $500 textbook plus binding its only cost you 60 bucks.. if the book is well over 100bucks then PHOTOCOPY IT!!!! its so worth it~ thats wat i did with my 3 textbooks this term
