You don’t really need books for the first week. In fact, there are some classes where you don’t need to buy your books at all! (see BISC-102, I never opened my book and still got an A in the class)

To answer your question, no you don’t need books for the first class and you can definitely just check out a class and not buy any books for it until you’ve decided that you want to take that class. Even if you do buy your books and realize you don’t want to take a specific class, you can always return them for the full amount.
