I agree with Sarah about Mackin! I use them frequently:) I also have started to purchase from ABDO Publishing. Their customer service is also fabulous and their pricing is in line with other companies. I have purchased non-fiction, multi-user e-books! If you buy at least 500.00 worth you get a free copy of the hardcover for your shelf if you want.

I use Mackin. If your or your library is a Connecticut Library Consortium member, you get a 7% discount. If not, they still offer free shipping and free processing so I find a save some money with them over Follett and I've had great experiences with their customer service. They employ a lot of librarians and they offer free collection development assistance. You can submit a custom list request to ask for suggested titles on a specific subject or section of your library that needs updating.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I'm looking for an additional book vendor, who does library processing. I used to buy from both Follett and Baker and Taylor, but B & T stopped working with school libraries. It was useful to have 2, because if a book wasn't available from one vendor, I could buy it from the other. Who else do people use?

Thank you
