Submitting orders to vendors
• Orders for big jobbers (Baker & Taylor, Emery Pratt) are ordered directly at vendor website and we are invoiced later
• Orders for Midwest Library Service are submitted via EDI or less frequently, directly at their website
• A few orders are faxed, mailed, or phoned in. Credit card or invoice
• When we use expedited vendors (Amazon, Barnes & Noble) we pay with credit card
