Would it be possible for the teacher to leave the book with you with the
chapter's marked and then allow you to place it in the library on
"reserve"?  The teacher could then ask that the students go to the library
to check out the book (perhaps on an hour loan) to photocopy the chapters
needed themselves?  Because they are the ones who are purchasing the book,
they would only be receiving a copy of what they need to read before the
text arrives.  It puts more responsibility on the student to get the
copies made, but the student is still responsible for reading the material
even if the teacher gives it to them.  This way, the student has the
burden on them--which is what they will have when they get to college. Why
not "train" them now?

Just a thought.
