Same here.... I have looked into Mackin print services. I can't speak to
the turnaround time because I have always used Follett & JLG in the past.
Mackin offers a discount for CLC members. Here is the info their Rep sent
me:

Upon checking with our bids team, they’ve provided the below information in
regards to the discount for being a CLC member.



*CT Library Consortium Discounts:*

Additional 7% off of Mackin.com on print (MackinBound binding cost not
discounted)

Additional 5% off of Mackin.com on eBooks & digital audiobooks

Additional 3% off of Mackin.com on DVD, CD, BluRay and Makerspace excluding
Lego Education

Additional 2% off of Mackin.com on playaway (Wonderbook & Lauchpad)



Please note that the discount is not applied to sale pricing.  If a title
is on sale, you will receive the lower pricing, whether it be the sale
price or CLC discounted price.


Good luck!

Carrie
