Maryville’s Bookstore Becomes ‘The M Store’

The concept of a campus bookstore is coming of age – the digital age, that is – and Maryville’s bookstore is leading the way.

To better reflect the entirety of the Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµAPP experience supported by its merchandise and services, Maryville’s “University Bookstoreâ€� has been renamed .

“We’ve expanded our products and services to reflect Maryville’s commitment to our Digital World initiative, and to address significant changes in the textbook industry—most obviously, the digital format of books,� says Laura Stevens, director of auxiliary services. “The M Store will continue to expand as we strive to meet a broad spectrum of needs across academics, technology and University tradition.�

Campus patrons will still find their favorite Ë¿¹ÏÊÓÆµAPPmerchandise, supplies and food in the store, Stevens says, but going forward, the focus will be on building a strong online store, along with mobile cashiering and promotions.

“The University logo is such a strong brand statement, it’s fitting the name of the store reflects the image of the University,� Stevens says. “The M Store name sums up everything we want to accomplish. We try to anticipate the items and services that people may need while on campus and meet those needs in a robust and timely way.�
