Impact of Baker & Taylor’s Closure
Baker & Taylor, one of the nation’s major library wholesalers, recently announced an unexpected closure; an issue affecting libraries across the country, including those within our MARINet consortium. While this is a significant industrywide disruption, we want to reassure you that over the last few months we have been actively diversifying our book vendors.
As we transition, you may notice a temporary slowdown in the arrival of some newly ordered physical books, and certain holds may take a bit longer than usual. We’re re-ordering affected titles through our other vendors to keep materials moving as quickly as possible.
Our digital collections remain fully available, and services like LINK+ can help you access even more materials during this period.
If you’re looking for your next great read, our staff is always happy to offer recommendations, or you can explore new titles and various staff curated lists. We appreciate your patience as we adjust to this rapidly evolving situation and remain committed to keeping our shelves well stocked.
