Do you have degreed librarians on staff?
--Just wondering. Seattle, WA


Dear Wondering,
Yes! Ingram Library Services is a company of book lovers with decades of experience in the industry. At the core of our operations is a staff of MLS-degreed librarians whose expertise has guided our business ever since Ingram Library Services transformed from a specialized department to a full-service company in 1987. Over the years, our librarians have broadened the array of circulation materials available from Ingram to include books, music, and video products. They have also worked to continually expand and enhance services designed to help libraries preserve precious resources and maximize efficiency.

By having librarians serve librarians, Ingram has earned the reputation as the innovator in the industry. It is a reputation we are proud of and will continue to uphold as we strive to set the standard in library services.




Sincerely,
