Bookmans News

Bookmans Mesa employee Paul Stewart celebrates ten years with us. Working at Bookmans as a temporary job while attending college is common among our employees. Still working here ten years later is just as common. Turns out that what was supposed to be a temporary position as a cashier taught one employee more than his formal education did. "I was learning more at Bookmans than I was at school. I've gone to college three times since starting here," says Paul on this subject.

 

Paul is a pretty elusive (and tall) dude!

Science is wicked cool and we are eagerly collaborating on the First Annual Arizona SciTech Festival. The Arizona SciTech Festival runs from February to March and offers a variety hands-on activities and workshops, conversations and debates, exhibitions, concerts, guided walks and tours in the coolest locations in Arizona. Our goal is to showcase Arizona as a national leader in science, technology and innovation.

 

Ten Arizona schools distinguished themselves as semi-finalists in the 2012 Bookmans School Challenge for their innovative and creative educational efforts. Bookmans received a strong response from elementary to high schools for agricultural, academic and artistic endeavors. The ten semi-finalists entered the second phase of the challenge where each school submits a short video presenting their proposal to the public with a total of $21,000 in cash prizes on the line.
