As a university professor, I am aware that many of my students are struggling to afford textbooks. Is there a way for them to access the information in these textbooks without purchasing them?

Yes, there are several ways for students to access textbook information without purchasing them. Many libraries offer access to physical or digital copies of textbooks, and students can also turn to online databases or free online textbooks. Students may also be able to find lecture notes or class materials posted by previous students that cover the same material as the textbooks. Additionally, professors may choose to post their own lecture notes or make announcements about websites where they share such materials.
