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

Hi everyone,
I am very frustrated with the delays I am experiencing with Follett. Can you kindly recommend book vendors who offer processing and get orders in your library quickly?  I need the processing because I do have any clerical help and our district is not allowing volunteers.  I am happy to catalogue, cover, and label the occasional title but I cannot manage large orders in a timely fashion.  We are CLC members.  Thanks in advance!
Allison
