Travel Standing Order Program
Managing the travel section of your library can be a challenge. Some travel titles publish annually, some biennially, and those well-worn Florida vacation books always need to be replaced. With Ingram's Travel Standing Order Program, your travel section will never again be out of date. This flexible program allows you to plan new travel book purchases based on the needs of your community. Ingram offers hundreds of travel series to choose from, so whether your patrons dream of sunny Caribbean vacations or European tours, you'll always have the titles in stock that they need. Just complete a one-time profile, and your selected series will be shipped on the schedule you select. To learn more about this program, visit ingramlibrary.com or e-mail us at continuations@ingrambook.com.


Can you tell me about Street SmartSM?
--Interested. Santa Fe, NM


Dear Interested,
Street Smart is a service available to libraries that need to receive new releases before published on-sale dates.

We understand the importance of expedited delivery, so libraries can have new titles on their shelves by the titles release date. Besides the regular flow of new titles, there are always a few major releases each year that require heightened awareness. To ensure timely availability of hot titles as well as adherence to street-date guidelines, please take a moment to review our Street Smart policies.

If you have not yet accepted our Street Smart Agreement, click here to review the details of the affidavit and instructions on how to accept the terms for ALL of your accounts on ipage® or by faxing the form to our Customer Service Department.



Sincerely,
