The MSU Extension Bookstore will become part of the MSU online store shop.msu.edu on Oct. 1. MSU Extension products that are currently being sold at the bookstore will be available on the shop.msu.edu online store along with a variety of other MSU products and materials. This new partnership allows MSU Extension to continue to produce high quality products while taking advantage of a robust, cyber-secure online retail store.
“This is a great opportunity for MSU Extension and shop.msu.edu to showcase the strengths of each distinct entity,” said interim director of MSU Extension Maggie Bethel. “MSU Extension will continue to provide its customers with the highest quality materials via a platform that has a successful history of retail sales on the university level. I look forward to introducing our products to a much larger audience as well.”
The MSU Extension Bookstore will accept orders until Sept. 24. No orders can be placed beginning Sept. 25 through Sept. 30. Beginning Oct. 1, all orders must be placed and purchased via shop.msu.edu.
