Might it be back to the early nineties?
How many people still occasionally go to the bookstore, but don't find anything of interest?
If B&N can make their bookstores more relevant to their local audience, or more welcoming, maybe more of those people will actually buy something.
For people who have already abandoned physical bookstores, perhaps word of mouth or community initiatives, book clubs, coffee mornings, that sort of thing, to get people remembering that B&N is a thing that still exists, and might have something of interest.
