Penn Bookstore

Fodor's Review:

The 60,000-square-foot store, operated by Barnes & Noble, is the largest academic bookstore in the United States. Highlights include tomes from the University of Pennsylvania faculty, loads of Penn-insignia clothing and memorabilia, a multimedia section, and a children's reading room. You can also find a Starbucks and the requisite best sellers.
