TARGET>Magazine Jobbers

[Thomas David Rompf <tom@rompf.org>]

Hi Everyone,

I have started looking at our magazine subscriptions for next year (a
bit late, but...), and over the last three years, we have been pretty
unhappy with Ebsco's service in Colombia (where my library is located).
What magazine jobbers do you use, and how do you find their service (in
terms of price, "lost issue" response, service, etc.)?  And, as
important, does your service deal with libraries outside the US?

I'd like to hear from both Stateside as well as international libraries,
as I think that being outside the country probably doesn't really make a
difference to the jobber.

I will post a hit when I get enough responses.

Thanks in advance for your help.

PS As a sidebar to this, if you have any "extra special" magazines you
couldn't live without, please let me know.  We are a K-12 school.

PPS It's been a while since we've had this particular discussion, so I
thought I'd update the thread.
