Does anyone have a Chicago or Northshore rep contact for Ingram?  I am also very upset, and just learned about, the closing of B&T.

I did a price check of B&T and Titlewave and books in Titlewave, the same books, came up 20-25% higher.

Ingram became my top vendor about 5 years ago.  Never disappointed.

Ingram has been on my radar for many years. When I was still working, I frequently ordered from them as their prices at that time were more reliable than Baker & Taylor. When they indicated a discount of 30 or 40% that's what you received. I don't think they have changed. LBSS has frequently used Ingram to supply titles for the book award programs.

I appreciate the advice regarding Ingram. I have to say, this change has not been well communicated by either Baker and Taylor or Follett.

So I am beside myself with the email I received this morning that Baker and Taylor is transitioning us into Titlewave....  Does anyone know of a vendor that is comparable in price to Baker and Taylor?  I typically price check Baker and Taylor, Amazon, Follett, Mackin, and Perma Bound....
