College Bookshops Go Downtown.
Williams, Audrey Y.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v48 n4 pA27-A28 Sep 2001
Describes how some small-college bookstores are relocating off-campus in an effort to increase profits and help revive flagging downtown business districts. Such a move can help fight competition in the $10.1-billion college bookstore industry, especially as more chains take over the operation of college bookstores and online booksellers carve out a share of the market.
