Share is offering a new, first of its kind, book leasing program for consortia, McNaughton Book Leasing for SHARE! It makes the McNaughton program accessible, since it is scalable to libraries with a variety of budgets and needs. Sign up here!
The program will include an automated, standing order style program for bestselling titles, available through two unique packages: a small plan with 60 books per year/5 books per month, or a large plan, with 120 books per year/10 books per month. All items will come fully cataloged and processed, including barcodes and spine labels. The price for each plan will include shipping to SHARE at IHLS Edwardsville, which will then be sent to your library via delivery.

- Saved Staff Time: In addition to saved staff time on purchasing, these items will come to you fully cataloged and processed, ready to fulfill patron requests.
- Convenience: Titles are delivered to you ready to circulate, while SHARE will manage contracts, cataloging, and shipping.
- Saved Space: When the books are weeded, they will be returned to SHARE, leaving more space for newer, more in demand titles.
