The bookstores are not a part of the university.

My experience is that if there is one bookstore, it is owned and operated by the school. A big hint here is if the bookstore is in a university building, like the student union.

Most college/university bookstores are operated by private companies and are located on campus property. Barnes & Noble College Booksellers operates over 1,000 campus bookstores, including Harvard, Vassar, BU, Columbia and Yale. Follett Corp operates over 700, including Stanford, UC Berkeley, Polytechnic, St Johns, Smith, and U-Mass.
