Through our management development program for students, the Bestseller Program, we recruit and train talented students and build long-lasting connections within their campus communities. During the 18-25 month course, students get practical, hands-on experience at their campus bookstore and – our favorite part – have the opportunity to interview for a management position within Barnes & Noble.

The Bestseller Program is high on our list of importance and has primed many students for academic and professional success over the years. We’re excited to have the opportunity to work with future industry thought leaders as they take part in our program.

We understand the role of bookstores on campus and act as a trusted resource and strong advocate of higher education. We share and support our campus partners’ missions to enhance the future of teaching and learning, and we’re dedicated to utilizing all our resources, experience and insight to help them succeed.

Barnes & Noble built its reputation on world-class customer service and the best collection of products and services. That commitment remains at the heart of our business through revenue-building merchandise strategies that include leading apparel brands, hi-tech gadgets, superior food and beverages, and a wide variety of products students want and need.

We’re shaping the future of learning and strive for innovation in everything we do. At our Reading Innovation Lab in Silicon Valley, experts and developers discover new technologies for the next generation of content delivery. We arm our campus partners with the most up-to-date knowledge, resources, products and services to best meet the needs of their customers.
