Background on bookstore transition
之后,巴恩斯 & 高贵的’s announcement last spring 那 the company would not extend its contract to operate the campus bookstore, the Auraria Campus institutions sought feedback from the campus community on their needs for a physical bookstore location on campus. 的 insights gathered helped to help determine how the bookstore and the institutions can better serve students in offering the educational materials they need while ensuring 那 faculty members have the flexibility to offer the books, supplemental course materials and OER to support their classes. 可购性, purchase and rental options, convenience and ease of payment were at the forefront in the shared decision-making process.
的 Auraria 高等教育 Center, 密歇根州立大学丹佛, Community College of 丹佛 and the University of Colorado 丹佛 selected Follett because of the company’s strong record of success in higher education, its commitment to low-cost resources for students and faculty and its focus on customer service. 的 bookstore will serve the three higher-education institutions on the Auraria Campus.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we transition to a more seamless and effective bookstore model.
