A WORD FROM OUR CEO LEONARDO RIGGIO I rem em ber the f irst ti me I realized I wa s in l ove w ith books . I wa s in my father’s store, a much smaller Barn es & Noble than the ones we see today. I had a p late of cookie crumbs and an almost finished mug of hot chocolate to my right, but it had been a while sin ce I paid the lef tovers any attention. I was on the last sentence. When it was over, I remember turning back to page one and starting again.
Books are a powerful tool. They are different worlds, new ideas, laughter, and alltogether an experience. In today’s society, we are losing the sense of experiencing the tangible and real. At Barnes & Noble, we aim to ignite that par t of humanity that will always thirst for this. Our brand embodies this i dea. We appreciate your respect and collaboration to maintain our identity in a consistent and precise manner to truly captures Barnes & Noble.

B a r n e s a n d N o b l e B r a n d G u i d e
COMPANY HISTORY Barnes & Noble originated in 1 873 when Mr. Charles Barnes opened a book-printing business in Wheaton, Illinois. The first true bo okstore was established by Charles’ son William Barnes and his partner G. Clifford Noble the year of 1917 in New York City; hence the name. In the early 196 0s, Leonard Riggio was a student at NYU. He worked as the clerk in the university bookstore. Convinced he could do better on his own, he op ened a competing store called the Student B ook Exchange. After only a few years in the busines s, it bec ame known as one of New York’s finest bookstores, greatly due to its wide selection. This asp ect of the bookstore would carry on into present day Barnes & Noble stores. In the 1970s, Riggio acquired the then declining Barnes and Noble trade name and bo okstore. Quickly, he transformed it into the world’s largest bookstore. This was the b eginning of the modern Barnes and Noble.
EVEN THOUGH E-BOOKS ARE BECOMING SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR BUSI NES S, AT BARNE S & NOB LE WE WI LL ALWAYS FOCUS ON TH E ID EA OF OFFERING AN EXPERIENCE WITH BOOKS ASWELL AS A PLACE WHERE THOS E BOOKS CAN BE SHARE D, ENJOYED, AND LOVED.
The old logo wa s an update f ro m the f irs t log o, the simpl e wordmark that the founder himself t yped up in 1978. It was simple, not fussy, and embodied the idea of having a casual, book-first space.

PRIMARY LOGO Say hello to the new Barnes & Noble! Fun, friendly, and full of possibilities, the new logo speaks to the fact that while we may be keeping up with the times, we’re not risking our values and standards. With a light , airiness to it’s letters and color, the logo invites our readers to spend their time and experiences with us. It’s our welcoming doormat. The shining star of the logo is the ampe rsand. It completely embodies the core value of the identity, the idea that we are more than just books: books and... The notion of possibilities not only captures the unique selling position but also two of the key features of the store: the large sele ction of books and the large environment.
THE NEW BARN ES & NOBLE LOGO ISN ’T REALLY NEW. WE PREFER TO THINK OF IT AS THE IDE NTITY THAT HAS BEEN HI DING WITH THE RE ALL ALONG, A REALIZATION OF EVERYTHING BARNES & NOBLE HAS ALWAYS EMBODIED.
This is the primar y version of the logo. It shou ld be used in all cases possible, unless shape or length create an issue.

SECONDARY LOGOS Just as the logo itself suggests the idea of possibilities, our brand offers possibilities. While the primary logo should be used whenever possible, we understand that senarios will arise that can compromise the legibility of the logo or that are just not compatible with it. We offer these two versions of the logo as secondary mar ks. They are to be strivtly used only when the p rimary logo is ill-fitted to the situation. Th e vertical composition (1) is constructed to fit in narrower branding materials. The ampers an (2) is made to be used in small spaces, unles s it is being used as a graphic element (covered in Section 3).
2012

Vertical Composition This version of the mark should be used sparin gly and only when something longer/shorter is needed. Indepen dant Ampersand This version of the logo should only be used when one of the other marks are present on the branded pi ec e. I t c an al so be use d as a graphic element.

PRIMARY LOGO INTEGRITY A logo is the embodiment of the brand . It is the brand simply summed up in one tiny, neat little package. Therefore, the logo must at all times be perfectly legible and without obstructions. For this reason , we ask that designers maintain a minumum area of breathing room around the logo that allows it to breathe and shine. The Barnes & Nob le logo, and all of it’s variations, must at all times have the clear space that is specified on this and th e following two pages. These pages also outline the specific han gline, both vertical and horizontal, on which all three logo variations sit. This rule must be maintained as it b est suits the design of these logos. Also, be sure to notice the minimum sizes outlined in this section. We ask that these sizes be strictly adhered to and only used when absolutely necessar y.

BARNES & NOBLE SUB BRANDS Barnes & Noble has three su b brands. The first is th e Nook brand, our ever-expanding e- reader. The second brand is B&Ncollege, a series of University-only stores that tie back to the origins of the store. The final and newest brand is pubit!, a self-publishing experience for readers.
ALL OF THE BARNES & NOB LE SUB BRAN DS RELATE TO THE LARGER B RAND, YET THE Y ALSO HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE LOOKS AND PERSONALITIES.

SUB BRAND INTEGRITIES In the same way the primary Barnes & Noble brand needs to shine with plenty of breathing room, it’s sub brands must also have at least the specified clear space at all times. These brands have specific vertical and horizontal hanglines as well. Again, notice that all three of our sub brands have a minimum size. They should never live at any size smaller than that stated otherwise they lose th eir legibility and imapct, and ultimately the brand is lost.

UNACCPETABLE US E Our logo is very impor tant to us, and we have spant much time and effort into carefully crafting it to be a per fect embodiment of our brand. We ask that designers and users respect the thought and craf tmanship that has gone into the logo by keeping it in it’s pure form and within the rules specified in this guide book. Be weary when using the logo not to alter, tweak, mutilate, or take any personal creative freedom that breaks the specific rules set out in this bo ok. The following are merely a few examples of practices that would violate the logo and ultimately the Barnes & Noble brand. 1
Do not at any time angle the logo. It alw ays sits on a 0 degree angle.
2
Do not add any eff ects to the logo, including drop shadow, gradients, etc.
3
Do not in any way alter the proportions of the letters or the ampersand.
4
Do not alter the colors of the logo except when in accordance to color rules.
5
Do not change the typeface or font style of any pa r t of the log o.
6
Do not in any way distor t the logo, either by stretching, squishing, etc.
7
Do not use the logo in any forma t that may be “nick named” or abbreviated.

PRIMARY COLORS The world is a highly visual place, and most individuals read through sight first and foremost. One aspec t of any brand that is not only most highly visible, but also has a hef ty deal of psychological meaning to individuals is color. The Barnes & Noble colors are as important to us as the logo itself. We have created two primar y colors, B rilliant Blue (PMS 632) and Cozy Navy (PMS 7463). Blue is a gentle color that invites our readers. The lightness of the B rilliant Blue is airy, creating a feeling of open space and relaxation. Our Cozy Navy compliments this by bringing in the notion of water, of coolness. This p ushes the sense of feeling relaxed and calm. While the Cozy Navy has a m ore serious tone, the Brilliant Blue keeps things fresh and fun! Below are the breakdowns for these primary brand colors .

SECONDARY COLORS Our secondar y colors play up the fun factor. They are each paired with a ‘shadowed’ sh ade. We have our Fiery Red (PMS 179) and it’s shadow (PMS 1817), colors th at spark creativity and emotion. Our Crisp Green (PMS 390) and shadow (PMS 7490) are at once sof t and energetic. We also have our Vibrant Yellow (PMS 103) and sh adow (PMS 5565), which are our sun and fun colors. We offer two neautrals to the brand, also a pair of light and shadow colors. This is our Air y Grey (PMS 5455) and it’s shadow (PMS 5565). All of our colors speak to the integrity of the brand ’s fun yet inviting nature. 1

PRIMARY LOGO COLOR GENRES We want to make sure that our Barnes & Noble logo can find a home on any surface. For this reason, we offer different color genres to designers and users that include single color, grey scale, and one color. These genres should only be utilized when using the f ull color impairs the logo’s legibility.

LOGO AND BACKGROUN DS Sometimes, the color in th e marks may not cooperate with a given background, be it image or color. In this case , a few opetions are available. The first is to use the simple and always neautral single color version of the logo set in PMS 632. Of course, th is may not always be ideal.
Al l thre e log os adhe re to the same sin gle color and black and white rules. As seen in this example, they also share the same ‘reversed out’ rule.
Another option in such a problem as this is to use the simple black and white version of the logo. This solution m ay be put to use when th e given background is light in color. Of course, such an option sould only be a last resort. When the background is not a light color but infact dar k or even black itself, the logo should be set in the brand’s white color, PMS 5455. Not only will this allow the logo to have full visibility, but it will also keep the contrast from being too stong, therefore reinforcing Barnes & Noble’s new brand ’s lighter and more friendly feeling. Again, this is a final resor t.

SUB BRAND COLORS The three sub brands of Barn es & Noble are NOOK, our e-book reader; B&Ncollege, the exclusive university stores; and, our latest addition, pubit!, an online self-publication application. Each of these brands, though unique and standalone, must maintain a sense of unity am ongst themselves and with the primar y brand. Therefore, they utilize the same colors present in the main logo. The sub brands mix and match the colors within their mar ks, yet they do utilize a primar y color. The brand orange PMS 179 M is the m ain color for NOOK. B&Ncollege’s main brand color is the brand navy PMS 75 47. The brand lime green PMS 390 is pubit! ’s primary color. Just as with the primary mark, the color specifications must at all times be respec ted to maintain brand integrity within each of the separate brands and the system as a whole. 1

THE TAGLIN E A tagline is import ant to a brand in that it embodies the core principles of the brand within but a few words. The Barn es & Noble tagline is ‘More Than Just B ooks,’ speaking towards the comapny’s and store’s home away from home idea.
The tagline also marr ies with the ampersand, speaking to the brand idea of possibilities.

TYPOGRAPHY The Barnes & Noble b rand utilizes three typefaces. The first is Barnes & Noble Heading , a bolder typeface that is use d for headings in print work, on posters , billboards, and also on web applications. This typ eface is always used in all caps.
1
The second Barnes & Noble typeface is Barnes & Noble Regular,, a thinner version of the header. This typ eface is Regular used for larger bodies of type, su ch as in this paragraph. It can be used in larger sc ale and all caps, as well as small and in upper and lower case.
3
The final Barnes & Noble t ypeface is the Barnes & Noble Serif, an italic romantic typeface that softens the brand an d creates a sense of class. This typeface is use d for captions, like the one on this page. It is also used for smaller bodies of type that are usually inferior in heirarchy. None of these typefaces are par t of the logo, which in fact uses a custom made typeface that does not appear anywhere else in the b rand. This maintain’s the logo’s integrity. All of these typefaces combine to enhance the Barnes & Noble brand image of friendliness, fun, and a sense of home. They should be combined carefully to maintain this concept.

THE ICONS The Barnes & Noble b rand utilizes a series of airy and fun icons to add character. The icons are utilized on posters, web pages, packaging, and products. The icons can be used in full color or tone on tone. A single icon or small group of icons can be used , or they can create a pattern. Whenever there are multiple icons being used, be ab solutely sure to include a variety. This means that there should be a balance between the types of icons us ed. There are book related icons, food, shopping, music, kids, and digital icons. The icons include ‘whimsies,’ the swirly icons that speak to the magic of books and reading.
