Zippered Tote Bags?
by Melissa Adkins 01 Nov '23

01 Nov '23

Hi All, What are your favorite places to order heavy duty zippered tote bags from? I'm thinking of the ones that are often used to house book club kits. They can be plain or have the option for branding with library name/logo, I am just looking for the ones you find hold up well and are also fairly easy to keep clean. Thanks, Melissa Adkins (she/her) Library Director Ecorse Public Library 4184 W. Jefferson Ave. Ecorse, MI 48229 313-389-2030 ecorselibrary(a)gmail.com
