Mr. Parneros joined Barnes & Noble as COO in November 2016 and became CEO in May 2017. He is the fourth Barnes & Noble CEO to leave in the last five years, according to The New York Times.
The company is beginning its search for a new CEO internally, with CFO Allen Lindstrom, Chief Merchandising Officer Tim Mantel and Vice President of Stores Carl Hauch all considered top candidates.
