[LM_NET] bookroom

[Melissa Cavender <mcavender@ASD.EDU.QA>]

Hi,

My school (independent/approximately 2000 kids preK-12) just decided this year to 
get Follet's textbook manager for all the textbooks and the bookrooms. I can't tell 
you how it is going because we are implementing it beginning next year, but I can 
tell you when they suggested I catalog everything in the bookroom I said it was not 
part of the library. We have enough trouble right now sharing a catalog between two 
libraries (also split for next year). It adds so many titles and younger kids are 
constantly frustrated because the books they want aren't in whichever library they 
happen to be in.

I would highly suggest investigating textbook manager as an option.
