New York, New York – September 13, 2010 – Barnes & Noble, Inc. (NYSE: BKS), the world’s largest bookseller, today announced its first ever “Barnes & Noble My Favorite Teacher Contest.”  The Barnes & Noble My Favorite Teacher program provides students with the opportunity to tell their communities how much they appreciate their teachers.  Teachers from Kindergarten through Grade 12 are eligible for nomination.  Awards include cash prizes for the teachers and schools, NOOK™ eBook Readers and more.  The contest will be broken down into local and regional winners, from which the Barnes & Noble Teacher of the Year will be chosen. 

 

Students can nominate their teacher by writing essays, poems or thank you letters that share how their teacher has influenced their life and why they appreciate and admire their teacher.  Participating schools collect the essays and submit them to their local (Jonesboro) Barnes & Noble store for consideration.  Entries will be judged on the compelling nature of the teacher’s qualities, the sincerity of the student’s appreciation and the quality of expression and writing.  For complete rules email crm2250@bn.com for visit www.bn.com/myfavoriteteacher

 The local winning teachers will be recognized at an event at their local Barnes & Noble where they will receive a special award acknowledging their achievement, a set of ten Sterling Children’s Classic books for their personal library, and additional recognition and praise from their community. The students who write the winning essays or poems will receive a certificate of recognition and will be honored at their local store during a ceremony for the winning teachers.   

Local winning teachers will be entered into the regional contest.  Six regional winners will be chosen.  Each regional winner will receive a NOOK eBook Reader and a $500 Barnes & Noble Gift Card.   From the pool of six regional winners, Barnes & Noble will name one teacher the Barnes & Noble National Teacher of the Year.  The winning teacher will receive $5,000 and the title of “My Favorite Teacher.”  The winner will be recognized at a special community celebration at a local Barnes & Noble store.  The winning teacher’s school will receive $5,000 and an event with a well-known author.
