The Kenyon Bookstore
106 W Gaskin Street Gambier 43022
The Kenyon College Bookstore is the nation's longest continuously-operating college bookstore, and the third-oldest bookstore of any kind in America.
Planning for the store began in 1825, when Kenyon's founder and first president Philander Chase wrote, "school books cannot be had in our poor country 'bookstores.' . . . Is every young man to send hither and thither for a book and perhaps be obliged after all to send to the East before he can be accommodated? Surely not. We must have a bookstore belonging to the Institution."
​
Today, the bookstore occupies a central location on the Kenyon campus. It sells clothing, gifts, food and drink, glassware, greeting cards, stationery, and sundries. In her College Book, Lisa Birnbach calls it the best individual bookstore in America.
