Barnes & Noble bookstore coming to EGCC in downtown Youngstown

YOUNGSTOWN — Eastern Gateway Community College will be home to the second Barnes & Noble college bookstore in downtown Youngstown starting this fall.

Arthur Daly, dean of the EGCC Youngstown campus, said the new bookstore will occupy the space that formerly housed the downtown Los Gallos restaurant.

The EGCC Barnes & Noble bookstore will include a cafe as well as a “spirit store” with EGCC-branded merchandise and apparel.

“The new bookstore helps the branding of downtown, and it helps build the notoriety of the programs and the success of EGCC and what we’re trying to accomplish,” Daly said.
