I respect your reluctance to accept money you have not worked for. However, it is quite acceptable for older relatives to help a young person with college expenses. If you could use help with this, you could discuss it with your uncle. Ask him how much he is willing to offer for books, and discuss the practical issues (like you said; do you call him and tell him how much you need, or what?)
Maybe you could also do something for your uncle, to show your appreciation.
