Barnes & Nobel Summer Reading Program Info and other Helpful Tips

We've received lots of useful information from Barnes & Nobel. This info is from the Eugene Store, but is available at all Barnes & Noble. Be sure to get your educator discount card. You only need you EDS paperwork showing your child is homeschooled to get this discount. If anyone has any questions they can contact Andrea at the Eugene store by phone 541.687.0356 or by email at crm2978@bn.com. I hope to see some of you in the store soon to pick up those Summer Reading Logs!

You can apply for an Educator Discount Card at any Barnes & Noble store- simply present your valid school ID, state registration, or pay stub.

To honor our PreK-12 educators, Barnes & Noble offers a 25% discount on classroom and personal book/gift purchases and 10% off music and DVDs during several Educator Appreciation Weeks throughout the year. We also host Educator Receptions, inviting local educators and school librarians to hear presentations on new book titles and to receive free classroom resources through raffles and giveaways.

Extensive Education Selections for Parents & Teachers
