media mail

Discounted educational shipping

Media mail is a discounted postal service in the United States for shipping books, recordings, and other educational materials.

The lower rate comes with restrictions—no advertising, slower delivery, and packages subject to inspection.

I sent the textbooks media mail to save on shipping.
