Barnes & Noble Stores Celebrate Educators with Spring Educator Appreciation Week April 14th - April 22nd

I got this email from Barnes and Noble today and wanted to share, in case you're interested. If you don't have one already, you can get a B&N Educator Discount Card by showing your teacher ID at a Barnes & Noble store.

Dear Educators,

As a part of the Educator Appreciation Week celebration, the Zona Rosa Barnes & Noble store will host its reception on Saturday, April 14, 2012 at noon. The event will feature a Grant Writing Seminar where we will be reviewing Deborah Koch’s How To Say It: Grantwriting, Write Proposal That Grantmakers Want to Fund. We will be offering you tips on how to bring literacy related technology into the classroom. Educators are asked to RSVP at Crm2184@bn.com . Helping us further celebrate Spring Educator Week, members of the Philharmonia of Greater Kansas City will be performing throughout the afternoon starting at 2:00 PM.

Educators who shop at Barnes & Noble during Educator Appreciation Week will receive a 25% discount on personal and classroom purchases, a 10% discount on DVDs and music, a chance to win a $500 Barnes & Noble gift card or one NOOK Tablet. Educators must present a valid Barnes & Noble Educators Discount Card to receive the discounts. *

We are very excited to offer you a special discount on any NOOK® eReader of your choice during our Educator Appreciation Days, April 14th-22nd. Stop by our NOOK counter and see which award-winning NOOK® is right for you. You’ll receive a 20% discount on our black & white NOOK Simple Touch, a 20% on our gorgeous NOOK Color or NOOK Tablet 16G, and a 15% discount on the newest edition -- NOOK Tablet 8G. The offer is good from April 14th-22nd in-store and online, limit one device per customer.

Over the past year, Barnes & Noble has expanded its educational sections and the majority of Barnes & Noble stores now offer either a B&N@ School or Educational Toys & Games section. Both sections provide educators and parents with a convenient in store and online one-stop shopping experience and feature exciting new teaching tools and games that make learning fun and engaging.
