Our campus stores serve as a vibrant hub of college life and learning. We believe in creating retail and learning experiences that engage students, support faculty, and build alumni loyalty. Together, our teams and stores work to elevate lives through education.

The Moravian University Bookstore hosts "Historic Haunts Ghost Tours," an hour long, one mile, walking tour on the streets of Downtown Bethlehem. Tour guides will be costumed and lead a group of up to 25 people on a candlelit tour through the heart of Historic Bethlehem weaving tales of paranormal activity, mixed with the history of the area.
