The Illini Union Bookstore, the official bookstore of the University of Illinois, has the student's needs and interests as its primary focus. The store sells textbooks, Illini apparel, entertainment books, basic apartment supplies and more. It is also where students and faculty members get their iCards printed. Businesses in the bookstore are TCF Bank and Starbucks
As one of the largest independent college bookstores in the country, the Illini Union Bookstore is the continuation of a book exchange organized in the early 1920s by students at the university. Due to the exchange's popularity, it moved into the Arcade building (715 South Wright Street) in 1932, and became a full-fledged bookstore. In 1940, one year before the dedication of the Illini Union building, we received our current name: Illini Union Bookstore.
