Description: Book Swap is a free web-based service that helps connect college students directly to sell their used textbooks. It includes many features similar to an auction service like eBay, users can list books they own and buy books from other users. After each transaction is completed the users involved can rate their experience to help protect other users from negative experiences. My primary responsibility was using the Smarty Template Engine to develop the user interface. Book Swap has about thirty page templates.
