McNaughton Book Leasing for SHARE

McNaughton Book Leasing for SHARE (by Brodart)SHARE Vendor Demo

Short on time and shelf space? McNaughton Book Leasing for SHARE may be your solution to keeping up new titles and the processing work that comes with it!

With this monthly book lease subscription, McNaughton will send five or ten pre-cataloged and pre-processed bestsellers to your library each month, reducing your holds, saving you staff time, and maximizing your shelf space.  

This is the second year of this first-of-its-kind book leasing program for consortia. The program and its pricing are exclusive to SHARE.

IHLS Carbondale Closed April 8

The IHLS Carbondale hub will be closed on Monday, April 8, 2024, due to the Solar Eclipse. Much of the IHLS service area serviced by our Carbondale hub is in the path of totality, and the Illinois Department of Transportation anticipates increased traffic volume on rural roads and highways in southern Illinois for the Solar Eclipse. Due to the large number of expected delays in traffic, the decision has been made to cancel deliveries for that day and close the building. Delivery will resume the following day. 

 

Which IHLS hub services your library? Search for your library name on our IHLS Delivery Hubs and Routes webpage. Once you click your library name, the IHLS hub and route number will appear at the top of the list. Questions? Reach out to IHLS Delivery and Facilities Director, Colleen Dettenmeier.

SHARE Staff Limited Availability

Due to upcoming events, such as the Innovative Users Group (IUG) annual conference and the Public Library Association (PLA) annual conference, many key SHARE staff members will be out of the office between March 25 and April 5. SHARE staff will be bringing back exciting ideas from around the country and the globe, and we look forward to sharing these ideas with our members!
