Central Stores to Close April 1 Susan Webert, Director of Procurement, has announced that Central Stores will close effective April 1. In the past few years, many organizations have determined that the need to have large quantities of routinely used supplies on hand is no longer necessary. Early this spring, we will announce details for new agreements for software and for computer parts and supplies. With these campus wide agreements in place, it is no longer cost effective to continue to operate Central Stores and the Bonair Convenience Store. Surplus Property Sales is not affected by this closure, and will remain open in the current location.
Stores does have on hand inventory of many items used by the campus.
We urge you to continue to order from Stores as you are currently doing, by using the on line order mechanisms. As inventory is depleted, we will remove the items from the catalog and many of those items will be made available from one of our campus wide agreements. If you have questions concerning a Stores order during this transition, please contact Stores Customer Service staff at 723-9606. As you find particular important product needs, or as any additional questions and comments arise, please send them to us via electronic mail. We will answer your questions and post all general interest concerns at the address below.
