 This project was a very good idea on how to get people study material for whatever they are studying all in one place. Many textbook companies will charge people a lot of money just to get access to a book that they would only use for a semester or  year and then never use again. It leads many people to having to take loans out just to get through the class and then do it all over again for the next class. The idea for this project was very good and I do agree that this is a good way to get information and textbooks for the classes all in one place. The problem I see is how would this not be considered plagiarism. We did discuss this in class and I do agree that just posting texts to rent or for people to look at can lead to one believing that it could be plagiarism by taking the book and posting it for a cheaper price. The group would need to figure a way around that or try to come up with another solution to this problem. If not, it could lead to many legal actions being taken against the group if this was ever posted up to be a real website. Other than that I think this is a very good way to help people who may need the study material for a class but may not have the money to get the books they need. Many people come from poor backgrounds or low income families so I can see the issue that the project raises. I think that the group also mention that the group plans to help those who are affected by DACA. I feel that this is also a good idea to help those who are affected by the changes and by the recent news of it getting removed all together. The group would need to iron out the edges and the problems with the idea but I could see that as being a really good idea for help those people. Overall, this project has some really good ideas that could make difference with the issue raised by this and can help with people affected by the targeted audience of what the group was going for. There are some problems that the group would need to fix and adjust but other than that it is a good idea.
