The fully renovated Barnes & Noble Campus Store celebrated its grand re-opening February 15. Officials were on hand from Loma Linda University Health, Barnes & Noble, U.S. Congressman Gary Miller’s office, State Senator Bill Emmerson’s office, California Assemblyman Mike Morrell’s office, and the Loma Linda Chamber of Commerce.

Barnes & Noble took over management of the Campus Store during summer 2012, resulting in new benefits including in-store and online textbook rentals as well as an expanding selection of e-textbooks.

In December, the Loma Linda University Foundation also partnered with Apple to become an Apple-authorized campus store, selling products including Macs, iPods, and iPads. Anyone who is employed by the University or Loma Linda Health may now purchase Apple computers at the company’s educational discount, according to Vincent Garcia, manager, computer sales.
