The University Bookstore is open for business at its Odette Building location and will remain so through September, says marketing manager Martin Deck.
“I’ve been hearing questions from students and faculty and want to make sure everyone knows it’s business as usual for us,” says Deck.
Just one week into July, this summer’s temperatures are already breaking records. Don’t despair; services across campus offer ways to beat the heat.
The health and safety office counsels employees to avoid heat-related illnesses by keeping hydrated, taking breaks out of the sun, and wearing light clothing and appropriate headgear.
The University Bookstore stocks products that can help, says marketing manager Martin Deck.
When students first asked about renting textbooks instead of purchasing them, he laughed, says University Bookstore sales and marketing co-ordinator Martin Deck: “I didn’t think we’d be able to do so and remain in business.”
But 20 years after it first started selling used texts, the bookstore has added rental to its repertoire.
