Hi

 

We are a joint use library serving both the university community and the
Broward County community.  The Public Library Services' AV specialist
requests video games for all formats (Wii, PS2, PS3, XBOX, Nintendo DS, Game
Cube).  We order from three sources, including Ambassador Books & Media,
Amazon.com, and Baker & Taylor.

 

Sincerely,

 

Andrew Copnick

Subject: [ACQNET-L] Source for video games

 

Hi, all!  I am back in library land after several years of working for a
vendor and then a brief detour into other nonprofits. (I'm hoping this
excuses my ignorance!)

We don't currently circ video games, but we DO buy them for programming and
in house use. 

Right now none of the places we get them from offer discounts.  This seems
bogus to me. 

Any suggestions for whom to obtain them from?  (Looking mainly for Wii and
PS2 games.) 

Thanks a LOT, 

Pam
