I actually like going into the Penn Book Center because I get to see books that big coporate places like B&N and Borders dont carry. As a result, you really find a lot of interesting books (especially academic ones) and its much more fun to explore than the large corporate places. I kind of wish it had more used books, but there are good used books in the Penn area already. Service can be a bit hard to get, though once you are able to flag someone down they do help.

While the store is slightly cramped, I really like the Penn Book Center. It feels and looks like a bookstore, and it offers a collection of literature that could interest anyone. Most of the time, I come here for textbooks, but I often find myself wandering the shelves and picking up titles that I wouldnt have seen elsewhere or even considered on my own.

Skylight is a nice little book store in Penn Book Center, which is great when you are walking around the area to stop in. I like to pop into small book stores and see that they have. Im not a big fan of the big book stores. Love to give my business to the small local shops. Im not in the area of Penn Book Center, too much but when Im around Ill pop in.

I like this tightly-packed bookstore. It stocks a very hefty selection of new, relevant and profound books in just about every area imaginable. I like used bookstores the best, but if i had to buy a new book, i take the time to peruse this bookstore over the near-by U of Penn B&N

The customer service, if you can call it that, is quite lacking. Do stop by if you want to be treated as if you dont matter.

I got some of my textbooks here - a pretty standard bookstore with friendly staff.
