Investigators were working Monday morning to determine what was taken from the Barnes & Noble bookstore on Georgia Tech’s campus in an apparent robbery overnight.

Lisa Grovenstein, a spokeswoman for Georgia Tech’s police department, said officials were alerted to a break-in at 5:25 a.m. The extent of the damage and what was taken were unavailable Monday, Grovenstein said.

An incident report with additional details would not be available until Tuesday morning, Grovenstein said.

The store is located at the intersection of 5th and Spring streets.
