A: Sadly, the UVU campus store will abandon you. Since 2008, our mission has been to provide an alternative to the campus bookstore. We will be working extra hard to have books for UVU to help with this situation. Please sell us more books so other students can buy used close to campus.
Q: Do you rent books?
A: Yes! Our Orem store now has a rental return bin in front for 24/7 returns too!

ABOUT US
Boomerang Books was founded in 2008 by alumni of BYU and UVU, with the purpose to provide a place for students to buy, sell, and rent textbooks. We were the first brick and mortar store to rent textbooks in Utah. We are owner operated, which means we provide the most knowledge and experience to help you.
We pay cash for books year-round and supply hundreds of textbooks to local students. We also buy i-clickers, graphing calculators, and unlocked i-phones.
We now sell children's books, popular titles, and disc media in addition to textbooks. Our Orem store now has Vanuatu Kava and CBD products to help you focus and relax after school and charging cables for all your electronic devices.
