eCampus.com is a U.S. based online book selling and renting platform.[1][2]
History[edit]
eCampus was founded on July 2, 1999 by a group of investors including Dave Thomas of Wendy’s, George Valassis of Valassis Communications, and Wallace Wilkinson, Kentucky’s 57th governor, with headquarters located in Lexington, Kentucky, United States.[1] Matt Montgomery has served as president and CEO since 2001, and has been a part of the executive team from the beginning.[3] The company pioneered selling textbooks online and was the first company to sell used textbooks online.
eCampus has partnered with Amazon since 2012 to serve as a rental textbook provider until 2023 when Amazon announced to shut down its printed textbook rental service.[4][5] In addition to providing services including new and used textbook sales and rentals, eCampus.com also provides digital textbooks and ebooks.[6][7]
eCampus serves as an official online bookstore for hundreds of American universities including Oakland University[8], University of Massachusetts[9], Edison State Community College[10], Duke University[11], Wright State University[12][13] and Miami University[14], among others.[15][16][17][18]
