DuBois History

DuBois Book Store was established at
Kent State in 1936 by Harold DuBois.

In 1945 a second location was opened
at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

A third store was opened in 1955
at the University of Cincinnati.

After almost 90 years, DuBois is still a family owned business,
now operated by its fourth generation.
Over the years DuBois book store has undergone several exciting changes.

In 2005 the Cincinnati location underwent a complete floor to ceiling remodel of the entire building and doubled its total retail space.

In 2011 the Miami store was demolished and a new building was built with three levels of luxury student apartments and a new retail store.
