The company serves more than 300 academic institutions through an innovative course material solutions suite, including full-service online bookstores and the eCampus.com ALL Access program.

91���� selected eCampus.com as its bookstore partner after a thorough evaluation and selection process that involved key university stakeholders.

Students will be able to easily order course materials through eCampus.com’s cutting-edge digital platform. Seamless integrations with existing systems will create a customized ordering experience that instantly populates all required content based on students’ class schedules.

eCampus.com will provide students with a variety of textbook options, including new, used, rental and digital, allowing students to select the format that best fits their budget and learning style.

In addition to its online bookstore, eCampus.com will operate retail stores on the Dayton Campus and Lake Campus, offering an assortment of textbooks, school supplies and 91���� gifts and apparel.

The new Dayton Campus bookstore will be located at 190 Student Union in the space formerly occupied by the University Center for International Education. The new space is undergoing renovations and will open later this summer. The UCIE offices have moved to 334 Student Union.

“Visitors will immediately notice a modern feel in the new physical store space with a variety of new options, including lower price points for branded and other merchandise in the store,” Sample said.

Faculty members will be able to research and adopt best-fit course content through eCampus.com’s cutting-edge course materials management platform. The university is working with eCampus.com to transition previously submitted textbook adoptions into the company’s system.

The university is working with eCampus.com and Barnes & Noble to eliminate any disruptions for students and faculty members while maintaining a bookstore function on both campuses, Sample said.

91���� will renovate the existing Barnes & Noble bookstore space in the Student Union. Plans for the space will be announced at a later date.
