New Barnes & Noble Location in Rockville, Maryland

 

Barnes & Noble to Open New Bookstore in Rockville, MD today, Wednesday, August 5, 2020. The  Relocated Store Has New Design, More Locally Catered Selection, and a B&N Café ROCKVILLE, MD 
 

Barnes & Noble is pleased to announce the opening of a new bookstore in Rockville, Maryland on August 5, signaling another step in the bookseller’s transformation to more intimate and locally-focused bookstores. This new Barnes & Noble is a short distance from its former location, but with a fresh look, reimagined book layout, and a B&N Café.

The Congressional Plaza Barnes & Noble will open on Wednesday with extensive safety precautions in place due to COVID-19. Both longtime and new customers in Rockville will find a bookstore of 13,000-square feet with a modern B&N Café serving food and drinks, including Nitro coffee. New features include an attractive display at the front of store for bestsellers and new releases so customers can quickly browse the latest books. There are also “book rooms” that make browsing and discovery more intuitive and enjoyable, and the children’s section is now arranged by reading age for more intuitive shopping.

Good morning Roy. Since you have convinced me to try fiction, I have consumed over 50 books since the first of the year. Maybe I can get an apartment above the store, ha, ha? Enjoy your day!

Roy,

Now that is a surprise that Barnes & Noble is actually opening more stores than closing them.  We have always liked going to bookstores...A

Good morning, Roy... with so many bookstores closing, I'm delighted to see on opening up. I've always loved bookstores and it breaks my heart how many of them have closed over the years.

I can imagine many more folks are reading today than a few months ago.  I suspect the new Barnes and Noble will be successful!
