The Fishbowl, a popular place to eat and hang out on campus, is one of the various areas in the EMU that will be inaccessible to students this year due to a renovation project that began June 6 and will continue until late next summer.

FIRST FLOOR QQOOOC Bakery Subway Marketplace Holy Cow Sbarro BASEMENT LEVEL O Coffee house @ Convenience store MATT GAHTON/Emerald Grocers aim to please students Whether catering to student demand or offering late-night snacks, campus-area grocery stores depend on students — and vice versa By Tammy Salman Oregon Daily Emerald As University students, it is our job to snack on food products. It makes no differ ence whether it is day or night, but when the urge to munch strikes us, we must give in. However, as we traverse the campus and surrounding areas in search of sustenance, totally engrossed in our daily and nightly ac tivities, we often wonder where we could go to quell our desire for some tasty edibles. One place to start would be The Kiva, a downtown grocery shop that is advertised as “Eugene’s downtown grocers since 1970” and specializes in local, international and or ganic foods. The Kiva offers an extensive selection of bulk foods and seasonal, organic produce, as well as imported and domestic wine, beer and cheese, store manager Laura Cammarota said. Customers can also purchase herbs, spices, homeopathic and herbal remedies, biodegradable soaps and vitamins. The Kiva is located at 125 W. 11th Ave., on the corner of 11th Avenue and Olive Street, and is open Monday through Satur day from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Another shop to visit in the campus area is Hilyard Street Market, conveniently located at the edge of campus at 1698 Hilyard St. (one block west of Alder Street). According to Brad Cline, who has been a manager for nearly four years, one will find various deli foods, a beer cooler containing more than 300 microbrews and the cheapest fountain drinks in town. The market also carries domestic items, such as toothbrush es, should you find yourself wandering around with bad breath. Hilyard Street Market, with its noticeable yellow and green facade, was once known as Dairy Mart but was purchased by new own Turn to GROCERIES. Page 7B Successful book buying requires planning and comparison shopping Students have many options for buying textbooks, including used books By Nicole Krueger Managing Editor Buying books at the start of the term can be an ordeal. Students wander the swelter ing, crowded aisles of the bookstore, stand in line with their arms trembling under the weight of their load and part with hun dreds of precious dollars — all for a few books they may crack once, twice or not at all during the term. But it doesn’t have to be that way. By planning carefully and examining several options, you can avoid the rush at the bookstore and get the best deals on your books. Before you buy your books for the term, make a preliminary visit to the University Bookstore, which is located on the west end of campus at the corner of 13th Av enue and Kincaid Street. Bring a list of your classes, including course name, pro fessor and course reference number. Up stairs you will find a list of University courses and the books that have been or dered for each of them. Write down the name and author of all the books you will need for the term. Next, begin pricing your books and find out which you can buy used and which must be bought new. You can buy your books at the University Bookstore, or you can sometimes find them at Smith Family Bookstore, which sells used books and is located on 13th Avenue between Alder and Hilyard streets. Visit both stores and compare prices. University Bookstore The University Bookstore, 895 E. 13th Ave., is a convenient place to go if your primary concern is buying all of your books in one crack. Books are located on the second floor and are shelved by course.
