Overview

The University has partnered with Follett Higher Education Group to operate the UWF Bookstore and a satellite store at Fort Walton Beach. Contract management and oversight is the responsibility of Business & Auxiliary Services. Follett has been in business for 140 years and manages more than 930 bookstores nationwide.

The official UWF Bookstore stocks the largest selection of textbooks, course materials, and Argonaut emblematic gear in Pensacola. The primary purpose of the store is to make sure students have the required and/or recommended texts and course materials as specified by their professor. Books can be purchased new, used, or rented for the semester and hard copy or digital, in most cases. Order online or in person. UWF’s online registration system connects directly to the UWF Bookstore, allowing students to purchase or rent textbooks online immediately after registering for classes. The order can be shipped to the student's address or held at the store for pick up.
