BNU Account Transition [ Edited ]

[BN_Admin]

To See Whether Your BNU Account Works Most Barnes & Noble University student accounts in use since October 2004 have become Barnes & Noble Book Club accounts, and can be used to access the new Book Clubs message boards.

To determine whether your BNU student account made the transition, simply click on the Sign In link near the top of this page, and enter your BNU Nickname (User Name) and Password. If your account information is accepted, then you are ready to participate in the new Book Clubs.

To ensure your privacy, the Barnes & Noble Book Clubs have transferred only the information needed to maintain your account, including your User Name, password, email address and communications preference. We did not carry over any other BNU profile information, including your location or biography data.

To see what information is in your Profile, please sign in and click on the “My Profile” link near the top of the page. You can update your Profile, including your communications preference, at any time. You can also control who gets to see your information by setting the privacy settings to All Users, Friends Only, or Private on the Preferences page.

Please remember that your Book Clubs account is a separate account from your customer account at Barnes & Noble.com.

If Your Account Doesn’t Work If you do not remember your BNU User Name or password, you can try to recover it using the “Lost User Name and Password?” link on the Sign In page. If your email address is in our system, we’ll be able to help you recover your information.

If your email address is not in our system, it means that your account did not transition from BNU. There are three reasons this could have happened.

1. We only carried over accounts that have been used since October 2004.
2. We did not transition any accounts that included certain special characters in the Nicknames (or accounts in which Nicknames varied only in capitalization).
3. We only allow one User Name per registered email address. If you had multiple BNU accounts attached to your email address, all of those accounts were canceled.

If any of the above situations apply to you, then you’ll have to create a new account to participate in the Book Clubs. Doing so is easy -- simply click here to register.

If you have any questions about this transition, please email the Book Clubs Help Desk.
