Hi,

I have a question regarding sales taxes.  As an academic institution,
do we need to pay sales taxes for books we purchase from an out-of-state

book vendor?  I found out that some vendors (such as Bernan in
Maryland) charge us sales tax, but some vendors don't.

Does anyone know why?  Your help is greatly appreciated.
