Textbook operations has changed dramatically in the last few years and this new partnership brings the University in-line with national bookstore best practices.
“ASUN has owned and operated the Nevada Wolf Shop for 67 years,” Dominique Hall, president of the Associated Students of the 性爱五色天, said. “Despite concerted efforts, this model was challenging to maintain. Given these realities, a change in our operations needed to occur. A partnership like this one, will again allow us to serve the best interest of University students.”
This partnership will allow ASUN to transform its enterprise to become a more competitive, full-service operation. Additionally, it will help fund community-based initiatives such as scholarships, student jobs and student life and student organization programs and events.
Through its expansive offering of affordable course materials, Barnes & Noble College will drive significant cost savings for University students. The Nevada Wolf Shop will also offer open educational resources and OER-based courseware through OpenStax, BNC Courseware +™, and other major providers. First Day™, the company’s inclusive access solution, provides additional opportunities for savings by offering course materials at reduced prices through a course materials charge-for-participating program. Students have the option to receive their materials on or before the first day of class, delivered seamlessly through the Canvas learning management system.
