Since 2017, the Dal Bookstore has prioritized sourcing more products from Canadian—and especially Nova Scotian—suppliers. Our partnerships with a wide range of local and national vendors help us offer sustainable, thoughtful choices that support the economy and reduce environmental impact.
We’re always open to new ideas and welcome product recommendations from our community.

We offer used books where possible and where a digital component is not required for your course. This is part of our ongoing efforts to offer students affordable options whenever possible and to support environmental sustainability.
Used textbooks typically cost 25% less than new textbooks, are tax-free and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Occasionally the price of used books can be up to 50% off the new book price. Check the back cover sticker for the price. You will find used books alongside the new books with a sticker to indicate they’re used. Used textbooks can also be found on our website when you search and order textbooks online.
