What does "T.I.S." stand for?
A lot of people ask us, "What does T.I.S. stand for?" The short answer is that it's just our name. The longer answer begins with our parent company, T.I.S. Group.
T.I.S. began in 1962 as a family-run academic publishing and textbook distribution business called Tichenor Institutional Services (T.I.S., for short). Over the years the name of the company became just the initials, as T.I.S. expanded its business to include a wide range of interests from college bookstores to sportswear imprinting to custom publishing.
T.I.S. is still family-owned and -run by the Tichenors, and is still based on the same ideal of high quality professional service in all our divisions. Here at T.I.S. College Bookstore, we are committed to meeting all your college textbook and merchandise needs and more!
From all of us here at T.I.S. College Bookstore, thank you for visiting our site today. We look forward to serving you soon!
