While I like this Barnes location, the corp company tried a bit too hard to keep Milo Yiannopouloss "Dangerous" off of the shelves. It was a NY Times best seller, and it was kept out of the best sellers area. Its in "Cultural Affairs." The thing about free speech, is when you stop de-platforming people with dumb ideas, or even odious and ACTUAL racist ideas, suddenly when the daylight hits them, support evaporates. A healthy culture is one which is confident enough that smarter, better ideas will overtake the harmful and nonsensical ones. Lets not engage in censureship anymore, please. Let folks educate themselves, and for their own opinion, instead of thought-policing.

Great spot to grab a coffee and browse. Excellent selection of books and the media section is one of the best around in an era where this type if thing is slowly going extinct. Helpful staff and comfortable seating. It is a little heavy on the tchotchkes at times but for some odd reason this seems to be the case at most book stores these days.

Great book store. I find it hard to navigate sometimes so its best to just find an employee and tell them what you are looking for. It will save you time and stress. However if you just want to browse around that can be fun also. Has a Starbucks located inside so plenty of coffee and pastries to enjoy.

Attempted to obtain title information at the front desk. I was the only one in line. The representative sent me back to customer service. I simply walked out and I wont be back.

If your looking for a clean restroom in the south, Barnes and Noble is the place to be. They have the highest standard in restroom sanitation......Thanks Barnes and Noble!

We need to support our bookstores, before they are gone. This is a good place to buy you a good book and a cup of coffee, then sit and read.
