The Duck Store Impact Report 2025

From working at our counters to studying in the classroom; from directing our stores to cheering in the stands; the people we serve — the students — are the very people who are The Duck Store.

32.97%* AVG % DECREASE of the COST of COURSE MATERIALS

Partnerships with educational technology companies have allowed The Duck Store to use platforms and integrations with advanced proprietary systems to procure and sell digital content in addition to the traditional printed formats.

In addition to offering less expensive digital content, we support students by encouraging Open Educational Resources (OER) and Library resources, which are both free to students.

The Duck Store Ambassadors

"Being a Duck Store Ambassador was one of the most memorable parts of my college experience — it allowed me to represent the school I love, connect with campus spirit in a meaningful way, and be part of creative campaigns that brought the Oregon brand to life. It gave me a platform to celebrate what it means to be a Duck and helped me feel even more rooted in the community that shaped me." - Carter W. UO student & Duck Store Ambassador
