The University Bookshop – all you need to know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The bookshop is based at the heart of the North Holmes Road campus in Canterbury, within the Laud building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University Bookshop is independent!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is a campus bookshop owned by the University and an integral part of the services offered by Student Life and Library Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that your interactions and purchases within the bookshop are more personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bookshop is open to all, whether you are a student, alumni, or a member of the public!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The University Bookshop is filled with the usual textbooks… to satisfy academic needs, but it is also stocked with many things of intrigue and wonder.” – Robert Ince<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

What’s stocked at the bookshop?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
