★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pretty good bookstore. Book prices are obviously a much better deal if you buy online though. Lanes are very small and it's very hard to walk around in here. At least they have lots of people working. Hard to find what you're looking for.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It would be easier to find textbooks if they were arranged by subject/course instead of by author because the printed book lists are often difficult to read and determine who the author is.
I've asked the same question to multiple employees and get a different answer every time.
It would be nice if it was laid out better so that at the beginning of the semester when there are 100 people waiting to purchase, the lineup doesn't block all the aisles.
I definitely recommend going to Okanagan Textbook Exchange first if your books are available there, and also checking the Green Text store.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lines are pretty long during first semester, but that is to be expected. They really shouldn't allow backpacks in though as things get really crowded with them. Books listed by author rather than by course, which just makes things harder to find. Staff are really nice and always helpful though

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Expensive but good quality. Make sure that if you're not buying your textbook from here, that you don't need launchpad (online portion) for the class. Launchpad is included in new textbook purchases, but almost the same price as the textbook on it's own.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I’m not a UBC student but I live locally and needed materials (engineering logbook) for my school work online. The lady working asked for my student number, I told her I didn’t have one and she said “... why are you here then?” and her general attitude toward me made me feel really uncomfortable. Then she made me give her my drivers license number?? Not sure how that’s relevant, it’s actually a privacy concern for me. Where I go to school, people come on campus all the time who don’t go there to buy merch for their kid or whatever and it’s never an issue. I’ve never felt this alienated at a store before. Won’t be going back.
