Barnes & Noble College Bookstore

The Hawai‘i Pacific University bookstore system is located at Aloha Tower Marketplace. Textbooks for all courses are stocked at the downtown campus bookstore. Details are available at www.hpu.bncollege.com.

We are now offering the Shark Bundle program!  All required textbooks are now covered by your course materials fee to help you save money and ensure access by the first day of the term.  More information about this program is available at https://www.hpu.edu/student-services/shark-bundle.html or on the Bookstore website at www.hpu.bncollege.com. If you choose to opt-out of this program or want to purchase any other course materials, you can stop by the Bookstore approximately 2 weeks before the term begins or you can place an order  on the bookstore's website, www.hpu.bncollege.com, by selecting the "Opt-Out" term when finding your books. Orders can be picked up in-store or can be shipped to home or office.  

The bookstore has partnered with ThinkEDU to offer thousands of computer software and products at educational discounts via a link on our website. 

The bookstore has a wide selection of logo apparel and merchandise including T-shirts, sweatshirts, caps, pennants, mugs, and much more. They also stock all the school supplies you need for your classes as well as nursing uniforms and lab coats. In addition, the bookstore distributes graduation caps and gowns. 

The bookstores also provide special services to students, such as U-Pass stickers at the beginning of each term for purchase by part-time students.  When applied to the HPU student ID, the stickers will allow students unlimited rides on TheBus for the entire semester. Full-time students who are charged the Transportation Fee may pick up their U-Pass at the Registrar's Office. For more information, contact registrar@hpu.edu. 

While the bookstore buys back books for a textbook wholesaler year-round, they will buy back books for the upcoming terms at the end of each term.  The largest buybacks are held during final exam week of the fall and spring semesters. Buybacks are held approximately eight times per year at the end of each term.
