And a quote from that article....
"Chief Executive Steve Riggio said in a statement that the company's outlooks account for the likelihood of continued difficulties in 2009. The bookseller has also cut costs to deal with challenging economic conditions, but Riggio said it will still look to grow the business, such as with its acquisition of Fictionwise earlier this month.
Barnes & Noble purchased the New Jersey-based electronic bookseller for $15.7 million in cash, saying it would give the company a presence in the e-book market prior to the launch of its e-Bookstore later this year."
