The first thing to happen when a Borders was marked for closure was the shutting down of the cafe. All cafe employees were either transferred to the sales floor or fired.
Also, the reason closing Borders have no restrooms isn't because they were torn out. The company that supplies the stores with things like soap and TP will not ship to closing stores as they aren't really a part of the company and have no money to buy it. If the managers or someone chooses to buy the supplies themselves, that's fine. Otherwise they just lock them up. There's no compensation for buying the supplies and no reason to legally leave them open (like if they had a cafe, or if local regulations demand they have certain supplies).
