School-Spirited Bookstore is a Place of Gathering for Students at UNT

Barnes and Noble wanted their University of North Texas location to be a gathering place for students. The 26,000–square–foot space includes several seating areas throughout, creating a welcoming environment. In order to drive sales, there is a significant amount of floorspace dedicated to university apparel and gifts, making the bookstore a retail destination, especially during sporting events and family visits. In addition to the retail space there
is room for receiving and storing stock, an employee breakroom, manager offices and a meeting room for the staff.
