    The original Barnes & Noble! Now a college bookstore (The New School, Cardozo Law School, several CUNY colleges, amongst others). Also carries regular books. Also buys back books. Rarely closes.

    One of the oldest booksellers in chain. You can find almost all you look for... Historical/Office Wall Map Section needs to be improved...

    When it comes to textbooks, the bookstore gives you options. Save over 25% on used books and you're sure to get your books in the correct edition.

    You can go in the back, and then the back has a door to ANOTHER back. That's where they hide the crazy math texts.

    All registers are on the first floor in the front of the store only. And we are currently unable to provide gift receipts.

    Why are their used book so expensive! It's cheaper to get them online with another bookstore.

    Тоскливо. Идите лучше в Barnes & Noble на Бродвее (район 82 улицы).
