Subject: Comparison of vendors for standing orders

I would like input from those of you who use Yankee Book Peddler, Coutts,
and/or Emery Pratt for standing orders.  We are in the midst of streamlining
our workflow and are trying to find the best match for our needs.  Davidson
is a small four year liberal arts institution with 1600+ students.  Have any
of you used these vendors for standing orders?  If so, can you give us any
tips on them and how one might meet our needs better than another?  Some of
our standing orders are foreign but many are domestic.  Please respond to me
personally.  Thanks.
