B&N's CFO Joseph Lombardi hinted in his resignation statement that with the company's commitment to digital he felt it was an appropriate time to step down. Wall St analysts say that Mr Lombardi doesn't have the digital/online experience to help B&N with the transition. Although, his interim replacement is the former CFO of Liberty Travel. Not sure what he brings to the table. Mr Lombardi will stay with B&N as a non-officer until 2012 when a permanent replacement is found and trained.
