Library Cards Vendors
by Faith Wolbers 24 Feb '16

24 Feb '16

Hello All- Would you mind sharing where you purchase your library cards from? Included with that, if you wouldn't mind sharing what your cards are like (i.e. singled sided, double-sided, if the barcode is printed on the card, color image, signature block, etc.) I am looking to see if there are more affordable options out there than what we are currently using. Thanks! Faith Wolbers Assistant Director Coloma Public Library 151 W. Center Street P.O. Box 430 Coloma, MI 49038 (269) 468-3431 fax: (269) 468-8077 www.colomapubliclibrary.net <http://www.colomapubliclibrary.net/>

Yellow Pages
by Devin Erlandson 24 Feb '16

24 Feb '16

I am wondering if any of you with local history collections/local history rooms keep your out-of-date phone books and yellow pages. We have our historic City Directories which we are definitely keeping, and we also have Polk Directories for all the years for which we have out-of-date phone books and yellow pages. Our main concern is space and condition of the phone books (the older ones are in pretty bad shape). Could you let me know if you keep yours? We are leaning to getting rid of them but if there's a good reason to keep them that I'm not seeing, I'm open to keeping them! Thanks. -- Devin Erlandson, MLIS Information Coordinator Allegan District Library 269-673-4625 alleganlibrary.org
