Ladies, Carroll County librarians can choose which jobbers they use. If your county has a set jobber, (or your mentor has a preferred jobber), please indicate that in the description (see my example for Mackin). -Jamie

Jamie, this looks very good! You did a great job cleaning it up! -Lindsey

 

Jobbers and Suppliers

 

Book jobbers buy books from the publishers to resell to school libraries at a discount. Advantages to using a jobber are that you create one order opposed to creating an order for each individual publisher. A disadvantage is that you do not always get everything you want, so you have to over-order.
