Average Book Prices, 2022: Final
by Jim Flury 02 Mar '23

02 Mar '23

Good Morning, TLN has updated its annual, since 2002, "Average Book Prices" document. Please see the attached spreadsheet. As in past years the data is taken from School Library Journal, in this case the March, 2023 issue. Different this time around is the exclusion of "Year to Date" average prices for 2023. Perhaps the inflation we have been experiencing has served to render that projection less useful? In any event, there is no YTD data for 2023 included on the spreadsheet. Instead, the newest information on the spreadsheet is the Final data for 2022, which replaces the previous 2022 YTD numbers. I will keep my eyes open for 2023 YTD data and if that happens to land in SLJ, I will update the spreadsheet once again. Thank you, Jim Jim Flury Technical Services Manager The Library Network 41365 Vincenti Court Novi, MI 48375 248-536-3100, ext 133 Note New Fax Number: 248-716-5584 Note New Email Address:jflury@tln.org

Free Display Cases
by Anna Merritt 01 Mar '23

01 Mar '23

Hello All, We have 4 display cases (see photo) up for grabs. Must be picked up, however, if your library is within 20-25 miles of Kalamazoo, can negotiate possible delivery. The tops do detach from the bottoms and the bottoms do have wheels, so they move much easier than you'd expect. Display case tops are 16"w X 16"d X 22"h. Bottom cabinets have a single shelf for storage. Light wood and Plexiglass.
