This IS indeed horrible!! As chair of our Certification, Standards and =
Practices Council for the State Board of Public Education, AND as a LMS, I =
am doubly upset about this policy, if indeed it is a corporate policy and =
not just a single store. I have a card and have not been questioned by =
our local store. I would suggest that if you have any problem in your =
area to write a LETTER to the corporate headquarters:
Barnes & Nobles Corporate Headquarters
1400 Old Country Rd.
Westbury, NY 11590

but let's face it: all the books are scattered on
the floor." --D.C.Denison

This is horrible
Who can we contact at AASL to send a letter to these
vendors?
