Like many libraries, we use Ebsco or other jobbers to set up and renew magazine subscriptions. Even so, we get tons of renewal notices, since the publishers apparently don't know that we don't subscribe directly through them. which brings up another beef I have with publishers of magazines. Not only do they bombard us for renewals months before a subscription expires, but they offer prizes for renewals too. But because we don't order from them directly, we get no prizes. My subscriptions (and my money) go in in April for the following school year's subscriptions. Whatever price the jobber offers is what we pay. No prizes, no special deal. Then in September and October we get letters with all kinds of toys offered. As regular customers how come we aren't ever rewardeed for our faithfulness (and early renewals)? Maureen S.
