Labyrinth is the bookstore most students in humanities classes are forced to use because their professors decided to support this mom & pop operation, rather than the Columbia Bookstore. In any case, it has friendlier, more helpful staff, but like all off-campus locales, does not take Flex, forcing students to use real money they can't just bill their parents for on the fly.
At the beginning of each semester, the second floor of Labyrinth will be arranged so students can find books by course, and roving salespeople will be more than willing to help should this still prove challenging.
Anyone entering the store will be accosted by a clerk demanding he or she surrender their bag.
Occasionally professors will launch their books at wine and cheese gatherings at the store.
The store recently opened a new branch in New Haven, Connecticut, home to Yale.
