The Barnes & Noble in Downtown Naperville is set to close its doors on January 21. The bookstore located at 47 E. Chicago Ave. has been in Naperville since 1998.
A goodbye post on Instagram
The company posted an update on its Instagram page stating, “We’ve found a new home! We must leave this store, and the new bookstore will be located a short distance away.”
A new location is set to open in the Spring of 2024 at the Prairie Market Shopping Center located at 2590 US Highway 34, Oswego IL.
