We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Leonard Riggio, the founder and former chairman of Barnes & Noble, Inc., on August 27, 2024, at the age of 83. Mr. Riggio’s vision and entrepreneurial spirit transformed the retail landscape, establishing Barnes & Noble as the largest bookstore chain in the U.S. In addition to Barnes & Noble, he also founded Barnes & Noble College, MBS Textbook Exchange, and GameStop. His leadership spanned decades, during which he not only grew the company, but also nurtured a culture of innovation and a love for reading. Mr. Riggio was also a public servant and tireless advocate for public education, literacy and the arts, supporting organizations such as the Children's Defense Fund, the Anti-Defamation League and DIA:Beacon. We honor his remarkable contributions and extend our deepest condolences to his family. Mr. Riggio will be greatly missed by all who knew him. #LeonardRiggio

Often overlooked in student success strategies is a simple but crucial ingredient to improved outcomes for colleges: course materials. Ensuring easier and less expensive access to textbooks and course materials is correlated with improved classroom performance and student well-being. Increasingly colleges are automatically charging students for books and supplies as part of tuition and fees–a policy known as “inclusive access.” But now the U.S. Department of Education wants to curb that practice. On this edition of LinkedIn Live, I'll be joined by two experts on inclusive access policies, Niki Whiteside, assistant vice chancellor of instructional innovation and support at San Jacinto College and Mike Moore of the University of New Hampshire.
