Compilation of replies: 1) I called the business number available online and an agent talked me through it and set it up. Very easy. 2) You can find information to sign up here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/taxExemption?ie=UTF8&ref_=ya_atepplus 3) did this yesterday. I just went through Amazon's preformatted sales tax exemption procedure. It is under Your Account>>Settings>>Amazon Tax Exemption Program and enter your password. You can either upload the State form or walk through Amazon's steps. If filled it out yesterday and is is already active. I haven't ordered yet and I think there is some caveat language that the Amazon certificate doesn't carry over to third party providers. It was pretty easy. 4) I found the process for tax exempt with Amazon. Hope this helps. It is attached.

Michigan Libraries - Amazon will start charging sales tax in Michigan on October 1. If you have let them know of your state sales tax exemption, what was the procedure? Do they require a mailed document? Can you just tell them the tax exemption number? Helen
