We don't use Baker & Taylor at Reynolds, but any discounts should be identified in the MALIA state contract: http://malialibrary.org/baker-and-taylor/.
We have switched from Ingram to mainly GOBI for book purchases because:
1) Single source for print and e-books. Ingram doesn't carry e-books.
2) Discounted book prices are comparable to Ingram
3) MALIA state contract (both GOBI and Ingram)
4) Shipping is free with very small fuel surcharge; no minimum.
5) EBSCO account credits can be used to cover GOBI invoices.
