Effective March 4, 2008, Office Basics will replace Staples as the College’s primary vendor for office supplies.  We have successfully negotiated terms relating to replacement items, shipment of orders, and dedicated customer service staff.  Additionally, considerable cost savings have been negotiated for a number of high volume / frequency items.  For these reasons, it is integral to the success of this continued relationship that Office Basics supply orders be placed through the College’s Purchasing Office.     

At this time, the College is not set-up to order directly from the Office Basics website with the benefit of the aforementioned discounts and service.  Therefore, we ask that you continue to place orders using the College’s electronic forms.  These forms, together with detailed instructions, can be accessed at http://info.ursinus.edu/facilities/purchasing.htm.
