Save on books by shopping online at largest bookstore Barnes & Noble

Barnes & Noble is the US largest and oldest bookstore chain offering traditional books, e-books, media and more. The first store was opened in New York in 1917, and now the chain operates 649 retail locations across the US, nearly 700 college bookstores and the largest online shopping destination www.barnesandnoble.com. The head office of the company is located in New York.


Barnes & Noble virtual store offers over 30 million products: it has a huge selection of new books for adults, teens, and kids (over a million in stock), e-books and e-newspapers, DVD and Blu-rays, magazines, music, home and gift items, collectibles, toys and games. The search engine at the website is powerful and helps customers easily find anything they’re looking for: travel guides, fiction novels, textbooks, historical readings, biographies and poetry, science and cooking books. You can search by author, by title, or keyword, or you can just browse through one of the categories of the vast catalogue. Users may narrow the results by the price range, format and age group – all these navigation tools make searching very easy. You may also check recommendations given in a NY Times Bestsellers section or pick a book through the B&N Top 100 list. If you prefer audio books, at BN.com you’ll find various formats, including CD, and free audio books for Nook.


In a Bargain section you’ll find discounted books (up to 85% off), the deal of the day and special offers like books under $5. Many paperbacks cost less than $10 as a regular price.


Barnes & Noble sells popular Nook tablets and e-readers that compete with Amazon-made Kindle readers and Fires (Nook readers are considered to be more advanced). In 2009 the company became one of the top sellers of e-books. The owners of Nook readers can get free Nook books from the online store.


Shipping within the US is free for every order over $25, and all Barnes & Noble members are eligible for free express delivery on every order. Members also get special deals and have an extra 10% discount on almost everything.
