Always a bad experience whenever I visit this place. I am not sure if my experience is isolated but I have never had a good experience whenever I visit. I cannot find the books I need and when I do order the books online (from the book store) they take forever to find them. If they (the staff) work there and find it that hard to find these books. How do they expect students to navigate their store and find them? Secondly, why aren’t they open on the first weekend of school being reopened? Students having their books for classes seem not to be a priority. I should have ordered from Amazon. Lesson learnt! Thanks.

Very expensive text books without discount for foreign professors, disappointing.

Updated Review: It’s a convenient place to pick up basic school supply items if you’re in a pinch for time. They carry university apparel and some pretty sturdy clipboards that I love. They have renovated the store and it looks much better. During peak rush hour, they require you leave your bag outside. In my previous review I reduced my rating because there lacked security for your items. However, I commend them for adjusting to student needs and implementing a bag check-in place this year. Now, your belongings will remain safe while you shop. The staff are friendly and willing to help. I was looking for a study guide to one of my required textbooks, and the manager was willing to source and bring it in for me. As other reviewers have mentioned, the lines are long during peak rush hours, but that is to be expected. They move through the lines very quickly and efficiently. Overall, in the last year they have made many changes and improvements that have improved the customer experience. I would recommend this store to anyone.

I have only gone in here once but it was a good experience. The staff were very helpful in helping me find the textbooks I need and were friendly at the checkout. It is nice how you can load the money to your dalcard and use it to pay and get some money back on your card for using it at the bookstore. There is also lots of merch if you want a sweater or dal stuff.

The staff are so nice! The selection is amazing for resource books and cute Dal merch. I mean the prices are outrageous and you can save so much money on amazon but it is a university bookstore so what can you expect? It sucks that you have to leave bags outside the store, so it's best not to bring valuables. They also do not offer plastic bags but their reusable ones are only 1 and are pretty good quality.

Nice and organized. The only downside is having to leave your backpack outside the store at your own discretion.
