New students often have the
misconception that the bookstore
is the only place to purchase texts.
They are wrong
Three other bookstore outlets,
The Book and Tea Store, Smith
Family Bookstore and The Id carry
a wide selection of class text
books as well as other related
reading materials.
The Book and Tea Store, lo
cated at 1646 East 19th Avenue,
will be carrying text books for ele
ven classes this term. Unfortu
nately, fall term will be the last time
that texts will be available. The
owners, Patricia Tubb and Mary
Faust attribute this to the rising
postal costs and ten percent stu
dent discount which virtually
consumes most of the low profit
margin inherent to school orders.
However, a fine assortment of
texts will be on hand for fall.
The Id, located at 1340 Alder
Street was the first store to offer
the ten percent student discount.
It is also the oldest independent
book store in the area. This term
the Id will handle the reading re
quirements for approximately
eighty classes. They also carry a
few used books, but are quite re
strictive in this aspect due to li
mited space.
The Smith Family Book Store,
located at 1233 Alder Street does
not carry new text books, but they
offer perhaps the largest supply of
used paperback texts.
This bookstore is anticipating a
move in early 1977, and will be
relocated at 758 East 13th Street.
