Welcome
What We Do
The Campus Bookstore provides necessary text and school supplies for an enrollment of more than 17,000 students. In addition, the store offers a wide range of discretionary items, including clothing, art supplies, general and best selling books, and software sales. The current text list may be browsed or textbooks may be purchased online at www.sbccbooks.com. The store also offers a range of services to the campus community in the form of an ATM, UPS service, and fax.
The Bookstore is owned by the SBCC Community College District and all profits are directed in support of student programs and activities. These include athletics, Student Life, scholarships through the SBCC Foundation, the Library Reserve program and other projects which benefit the quality of the student experience on campus.
