In addition to the online bookstore, eCampus.com will also manage the physical campus store, revamping it to include a broader selection of SUNY Brockport-branded merchandise. Scheduled to reopen in the near future, the store will represent a welcoming place for students to purchase a variety of apparel and accessories.
Building Community Through Merchandise
As part of this initiative, the campus store will not only serve as a shopping destination but also as a center for course material services. Students can look forward to pick-up services, seasonal buyback events, and assistance with rentals. Through this enhanced service model, eCampus.com aims to enrich the overall student experience at SUNY Brockport.
