We plan on bundling the multiple copies from in house book clubs and allowing off site book clubs to check out a set for their members. Georgetown is doing this successfully.
As for book clubs we sponsor internally, we are buying 10 copies paperbacks, no processing, treating them as disposables, which will go into the sets referred to above. It is amazing how well a non-processed (no laminate) paperback can hold up!!! Dale Dale Ricklefs, Library Director Round Rock Public Library 216 E.

Do the members order their own? Do you order and they pay for them? Do you order multiple copies for the library and let them check them out? Any other tips on this subject would be gratefully received! Judy Judy Duer Library Director Temple (TX) Public Library [email protected] 100 W.
