It’s that time of year again! Classes start up in two weeks, and as exciting as it is to be heading back to campus and being reunited with friends, you can’t forget about your textbooks and school supplies. 

We know that each student has a different learning style, and we now offer many course material options so that each student has the tools he/she needs to be successful in the classroom.  Also, since we’re the official course materials retailer on campus, we are guaranteed to have the right books because we get the lists directly from the professors. No more guessing if you’re purchasing the right edition or volume! 

Here’s a quick breakdown:

New Textbooks: Does someone else’s highlighting distract you? Do you prefer to make your own notes in the margins? Does something about that new book smell get your brain running? If so, then new textbooks are for you! New textbooks come straight from the publisher and are just waiting for you to crack them open. Remember--if your textbook requires an accompanying online access code, you may need to buy the new textbook to get the code.

Used Textbooks: Used books are definitely the right choice for anyone hoping to have a true Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince moment, and glean some important knowledge from those who carried the book before you. They are also a great way to save money if you don’t need the thrills of a new book. Many books are available with this option.

Rental Textbooks: You are a non-nonsense kind of person--you need the textbook to get you through the class and then you don’t plan on opening it again. Or maybe you have an expensive text and are looking for a way to save some cash? Either way, rental textbooks are for you. Use the textbook for the semester and return it to us at the end--it’s as easy as that!  Rental can even save you up to 65% off the price of a new textbook.

Digital course materials: Perfect for the tech-savvy student who would prefer to carry around a laptop or tablet rather than a bag full of books. Many textbooks now come in the format of a digital download.  But these aren’t just your average textbooks--the digital technology allows the publisher to put videos, charts, and other active media right into the text that will take your learning experience to the next level.  (Some of these are also available in rental format--the digital material will simply be deactivated at the end of the semester.)

Ready to order your textbooks? Visit us online to order and you can pick them up at the store when you arrive on campus (Did we mention that means you don’t pay any shipping?!).  http://www.bkstr.com/notredamestore/shop/textbooks-and-course-materials?cm_mmc=facebook-_-fbts-_-fhegoneverything-_-700

The University of Notre Dame is one of the most well-known and respected Catholic institutions of higher learning in the United States. While there are many important aspects of the Notre Dame experience, the spiritual aspect is one that is central. As a reflection of this, one of the most common graduation gifts is the Notre Dame Bible. The beautiful leather bound edition is embossed with the school seal on its cover, and is a treasured Notre Dame tradition.

  During Commencement Weekend, the Bookstore team wheels the Bible stamping machine out to the sales floor to personalize Notre Dame Bibles for new graduates. Gold foil is carefully stamped into the leather cover of the Bible in a process that has been perfected by only a select few members of the Bookstore team.

This beautiful piece of Notre Dame tradition has been treasured for years by students and alumni. The Notre Dame Bible and personalization are available every day of the year at the Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore. Orders may be placed by calling 574.631.6316.

College graduation is a time of mixed emotions for students. It’s a time to be proud of accomplishments, to be excited for the future and new beginnings, and it’s also bittersweet to say goodbye to friends and the place they've called home for the most formative years of their lives. Through all of these emotions, nothing can quite put a smile across the face of a newly minted college graduate than pulling on that first alumni sweatshirt. As a Notre Dame grad myself, I know the last thing that I did before I moved out of my apartment senior year was head to the Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore and reward myself with Alumni apparel (and an Alumni decal for my Jeep). 

If you’re looking for the perfect gift for your new ND grad, allow me to offer some options guaranteed to send your Alum off to their new future bursting with Irish pride. 

This quarter-zip is a comfy, casual favorite, and it comes in THREE colors! This is perfect for keeping your grad warm on airplanes, at tailgates, and during apartment hunting. http://expi.co/0KuUJ 

Your grad will be taking lots of photos with friends during Commencement Weekend. What better way to display that great shot of them throwing their caps? http://expi.co/0KuUN 

Whatever your grad is going to do next, a sleek business card holder is a great gift!  Going to grad school? They need to carry contact info cards for potential employers. Moving into a full time job? They want to be professional when meeting with potential clients and networking. Participating in a service organization or mission? They will want to stay in touch with all of the incredible people that they meet. I personally have two of these babies--one for my purse and one for my computer bag--so I’m never caught without business cards. http://expi.co/0KuVP 

Show off you grad’s hard work (and major investment!) by displaying their diploma and tassel in a gorgeous Notre Dame frame.  We have several options, including this stunner that’s guaranteed to impress in any office. http://expi.co/0KuUa

Great for both home and the office, your new working grad will be starting many mornings (and afternoons) with coffee, so why not use it as an opportunity to show off some Irish pride! http://expi.co/0KuVS

Sure to incite jealousy in all Michigan and USC alums, your grad’s car will be the best looking ride in the parking garage with this ND Alumni Decal. http://expi.co/0KuVV

The unveiling of The Shirt is one of the most anticipated events on campus every spring. Occurring annually on the Friday evening before the spring football game, this year’s unveiling will be a little different. 

The Shirt 2015 Unveiling will take place on Sunday, April 26th. The Shirt will be revealed around 7:00 P.M., with entertainment starting approximately 90 minutes earlier. The event will continue to happen on the front lawn of the Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore. 

Many things were taken into consideration for this year’s unveiling, the greatest of them being the changes to the spring football game. This year’s Blue and Gold game will be held at the LaBar Practice Field due to the Campus Crossroads Project and construction at Notre Dame Stadium. The venue change has limited ticket distribution to 3,000, and tickets will be given by invitation only. This will severely limit those who will be coming to the game, and will have a strong effect on the size of the crowd on campus for the weekend. 

To promote the spirit of The Shirt, the committee has elected to change the date of the unveiling. This new date aligns with Notre Dame Day, a 29-hour live-from-campus broadcast produced by the University’s Development Office. The Shirt 2015 Unveiling will be streamed live during the event, allowing ND alumni and fans across the world to watch live. As always, The Shirt will be available for purchase immediately following the ceremony at the Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore, and online at www.NDCatalog.com.  

Our Winter Clearance Event is underway NOW!  In-Stores Only, take an additional 25% off all clearance items. 

We get it.  Classes are back in session, and you're trying to balance the thrill of seeing your friends with the prospect of mounds of homework and even bigger mounds of snow.  But here at the Bookstore, we're getting pumped for the next few months, because we've got some big things in store!

1. The first Under Armour spring line. Very soon we'll get our first glimpse of #TeamUA's spring items for ND. We'll be ready to gear up for baseball, softball and lax games before we know it! (We even heard a rumor that the new line includes some pretty sweet running shoes for those of you prepping for the Holy Half!)

2. Junior Parents Weekend. What better time to hit up the Bookstore with your parents and tell them how you've been eyeing that sweatshirt since August! It's also a great time to order your class ring. 

3. The Shirt 2015.  The Shirt project for 2015 is well underway, and it's time to start those rumors about the color and design. Will we see more shades of blue? Another sea of green? Or *GASP* a gold shirt that might actually look good?! Only time will tell.
