I would recommend an introductory textbook.
Stephen Mitchell's intro to Buddhism textbook is used in a lot of intro classes in religious studies departments.
Donald Lopez's "Buddhism in Practice" would be a great resource, too, I imagine. We used his similar book on East Asian religions for an intro class on that topic. They are edited volumes that offer a great commentary by Lopez at the beginning of each section, followed by a collection of articles by top scholars on the subjects. Lopez himself is a very highly regarded scholar in the field.
You can generally find cheap copies on amazon. (the Lopez book on Buddhism is $8 on Amazon, and the Mitchell book is $24.
