BATON ROUGE — One of Barnes and Noble's Baton Rouge stores has reopened in a new location.
The bookstore's Citiplace location, which closed its doors Sept. 12, reopened Wednesday about a mile up Corporate Boulevard in Town Center at Cedar Lodge. The new store is across from Ulta in the old Talbots.
The Town Center Barnes and Noble's opening was accompanied by a ribbon-cutting and book signing by local author Rachel Schneider. Schneider will bring her newest book, "Metal Slinger," to the signing nearly two weeks before it hits shelves.
"We are very pleased to be opening this brand-new Barnes and Noble in Baton Rouge,” James Daunt, CEO of Barnes and Noble, said. “We have been a steadfast presence in this community for nearly 30 years. In the intervening decades, our old bookstore had begun to show its age. Our Baton Rouge booksellers are eager to show how much work they have done to bring this beautiful new Barnes and Noble to life.”
