Ahhhh, City Lights! Classic indie bookstore and San Francisco gem. Tucked away in Chinatown amidst a spectacle of neighboring night clubs, bars, trendy coffee shops and eats. Its perfectly grungy yet hip enough to satisfy any book lovers dream. What makes this spot so special? The history hidden behind City Lights and what makes it such a historical landmark. Jack Kerouac, leader of the Beat Generation who inspired so many greats within the American literary, music and culture scenes has a spot dedicated to him right here... In Jack Kerouac Alley. The Beats, or "Beatniks" owe it to him, and the poetry room and zine sections in City Lights lay testament to that budding revolutionary, independent voices that make this shop a classic stop. Ive only ever spent a few wanderings in here while in the area, but I can easily see whats to love about this store. You can get lost for hours in such a tiny spot... And thats the most important part.

They were able to let me grab the books I needed so I didnt have to stand in line again (Even through they said they would hold my books for me when I was there less than a week prior to this years visit ) Aside from that, they have pretty neat deals. Last Semester I was able to buy a gaming headset with free ear buds from the same company.

The SFSU Bookstore is always good.I havent had much interaction with the staff, but they seem pretty nice. I really wish they had an online catalog so I could look up things that I might want to check out before I showed up, but its always fun to venture around regardless.

Bookstore was just renovated! Unfortunately, its run by a business and not the school, so money doesnt go back to the school. Prices are waaaay too expensive.

Campus bookstores are always rather expensive, and this is no exception. However, the staff are helpful and the bookstore has a great selection of items.

Great Bookstore on campus. Recently renovated, and gives the campus a good look. Even has a little Apple center in there for any student needs.
