The Penn State University Bookstore
What people are saying
This campus is extraordinary! Each academic program is challenging. Life on campus is amazing. The alumni association is extremely supportive. The faculty and staff are fantastic and accommodating. Game weekends are other-worldly. There's no place like Happy Valley and the pride that is shared is incomparable. "We Are... Penn State!!" isn't just a slogan, it's a lifestyle.
I worked at the Penn State Bookstore as a cashier when I was a student. I will never forget when our manager, Sue came to us cashiers and told us that none of us deserved to make over $7.25 an hour. I had never felt more dehumanized in my life. Hope she no longer works there!
Some staffs are very rude, but some are very kind. So I guess it can be a hit or miss in terms of customer service. Prices are little overpriced and would be way cheaper to buy online. But if you are visiting campus, it’s a worth visit to buy some PSU merchandise.
Foreigner student here! Still trying to understand why this is called a bookstore 🤔 Mostly university gear, very small book section and very small stationery section. Despite being small, the book selection was actually kinda nice! The staff was lovely! They were very kind and had a positive attitude 💖
Get your penn state gear here. So spacious and so many choices. And service is great too
