[Michlib-l] Book vendors

[Sarah Rick]

Hello,

An option for those wanting another option, you can set up a Classworks account with Barnes and Noble.  They give discounts similar to Baker & Taylor and if a book is showing it's not available online, you can talk with the representative to see if they can get it from the warehouse.  The Barnes and Noble representative I set the account with is Gale Lewis and her phone number is (616) 204-1197.  I know the contact for those closer to Flint is Tanya (not remembering her last name, but if you call the Barnes and Noble at the Genessee mall and ask to speak with Tanya they should patch you through).

Should have read all of my emails before replying - looks like I can uncross my fingers now that the deal between ReaderLink and B & T has fallen through.  Ugh.  Amazon wins again.

Don't shoot me, but I'm going to Amazon's webinar on Wednesday.  I assume it's to explain how they are now taking over the book processing business from B & T, but even if it's just short-term and I hope it is, we need to be able to get our new books somehow.  Fingers crossed that B & T and their new owner get their act together soon.

Any recommendations for book vendors besides Baker & Taylor? A little bit of uncertainty with their future & too many of our orders are back
ordered.

Thanks
