 As
 most of you know, Follett purchased Baker & Taylor last
 year. I asked my service rep at Baker & Taylor about the
 rumors that B&T would no longer be selling books to
 school libraries, and this was her reply:
 Yes
 this is true.  I am now a Public Library
 rep.As
 of June 30th Baker
 and Taylor will no longer be filling orders for school
 libraries.All
 orders received after this date, will be sent to
 Follett.So
 if you need to place an order, please place before this
 date.Follett
 purchased Baker and Taylor last April.
  
 This
 is bad news for those of us who have been using B&T for
 most of our print purchases, especially since we have been
 able to enjoy a substantial discount (up to 40 percent) on
 many of their titles through our membership in the
 CLC.
