Stanford Bookstore & Cardinal Technology Center

Has books by Stanford Profs. I think that’s cool. Books by other authors too. You can get cool Stanford merch there too.

I love the Stanford Bookstore...warmth, spacious and welcoming! Part of a larger cluster of coffee shops and student services.
Nice assortment of books, including a full section by Stanford graduates. Naturally a handpicked collection on creativity, critical thinking, innovation etc, And then there's the merch - everything from clothes (especially sweatshirts, tshirts and sportswear) to tumblers, stickers...lots of branded stuff for the whole family. Be sure to check out the lower floors for special offers etc.

Inspiring, humbling, and staffed by some rather insightful characters. It was at the Stanford Bookstore where I first dreamed that I could write a memoir (of course, this was thanks in part to Chanel Miller's own memoir, which was handed to me by an attendant named Eric). Unfortunately, upon completion of my manuscript, I realized a key plot point would need to be redacted. Nevertheless, what a magical store!
