Vendors for Music CDs

[ALefkofsky at cabq dot gov]

Although we have been using Baker & Taylor as our vendor for music CDs, 
for various reasons we are now looking for an alternative source.  We 
originally worked with Professional Media, and have stayed on as the 
company was subsumed by B&T. 

Along with the standard bench marks we look for in a vendor (good fill 
rate, competitive discounts, good website and inventory info), we also 
prefer to use a company that will provide us with good MARC records, do 
physical processing, access our database to link items -- and then 
separate and drop-ship orders to our branches.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions that this group could offer on music 
vendors.  Even solid companies that can supply product -- but not the 
other value-added services -- would be of interest. 

Please respond to me directly -- or, to the list if you feel others would 
find the information to be helpful.
