Noteworthy

Highsmith Discount Increased
Highsmith has increased the discount it gives to BCR member libraries. Libraries will now receive a 16 percent discount off the price of items in current Highsmith catalogs. Free freight also is provided for stock orders amounting to more than $300. The new discount is valid through July 31, 2003. A minimum order of $25 is required. To obtain the discount, refer to "Discount No. 39715" on purchase orders.

The discount is not valid on 3M security products, Highsmith Premium Book Returns, sale items, bids, sale catalogs or orders already in progress.

DEMCO Free Shipping Limited
Because of the special shipping required for its customers in Alaska and Hawaii, DEMCO has eliminated the free shipping of supplies, library promotional and learning enrichment items in the discount it gives to BCR member libraries in those states. Instead, DEMCO will charge Alaskan and Hawaiian BCR member libraries the difference between their rate and that of the contiguous 48 states in the U.S.

The BCR DEMCO discount continues to be 14.5 percent on library, office and computer supplies; 3 percent on library promotional and educational items; and 9 percent on furniture and equipment. Excluded are 3M Tattle Tape products, Self-Check System, staff work- station and video check-out, Checkpoint products, software, Kwik Case products, books from the DEMCO Web site and special orders for nonstandard products.

To obtain the DEMCO discount, libraries should refer to "Contract #C79060" on all mail, phone, fax orders and Web orders.
