Shawn- Elwood Township: (13:42) We are doing our own theme for SRP. Whatever we can afford and what supplies we have left over.
Darlene Barlow at lovingtonpld@gmail.com: (13:42) Who would I get in touch with if I have some books that have been donated to us and I found the book in Polaris but there is not what I need like a paperback ISBN or a Doubleday Publ. name added and I don't know how to do this.
Kay Burrous South Macon: (13:43) Thanks. I left him a message. Our delivery people are really good, I have never had this happen before.
Joe DeVillez: (13:43) One of the catalogers would be able to help you. I would start with Joan Bauer and she might give you a more direct source.
Joe DeVillez: (13:44) Joan's # is (217) 352-0047 ext. 721
Lesley Zavediuk: (13:44) Joan can be reached at: 217-352-0047 ext. 721 You could also try Edie Elliot at ext. 445.
Lesley Zavediuk: (13:44) Looks like Joe and I were racing!
Darlene Barlow at lovingtonpld@gmail.com: (13:46) Thanks so much for your help!
Lesley Zavediuk: (13:49) Looks like we've got about 10 minutes left. Any other questions for the good of the order?
Nick Bennyhoff: (13:52) Darlene, for the book to match, it has to have the same publisher. ISBN doesn't have to match if everything else does. If there isn't a record with the same publisher in Polaris, a record will need to be brought in from OCLC.
Darlene Barlow at lovingtonpld@gmail.com: (13:53) Thank You!
Joe DeVillez: (14:00) That's the time. Have a good afternoon everyone!
Lesley Zavediuk: (14:00) Well - it looks like that's all for today. Have a fabulous afternoon and we'll see you next time.
