  • Barnes and Noble does not have plans to return to Bloomington as of now.
    Are There Plans to Open a Barnes and Noble or New Bookstore in Bloomington?
    Alexandra Harrison
    In February of 2019, Bloomington’s Barnes and Noble closed its doors for good and left the community with an immense need for more books. Nancy Boerner, a retired collection development librarian and avid reader, had lost her favorite place to browse and find new books when Barnes and Noble closed. She then asked City Limits to find out if there were plans for Barnes and Noble to return and if there were any other bookstores planning on opening in the area.
