Baker & Taylor, the leading supplier of library content, software, and services to public and academic libraries in the U.S. – including the Park Ridge Library – recently announced they are closing.
How will this affect our library?
There will be a delay in receiving some newly published books as supply chains adjust in the coming weeks and months. We are researching and partnering with new distributors and updating systems to keep your library experience as seamless as possible.
What can you do?
- Place holds on new books. If you know a new book is coming out, placing a hold on it now to save your spot and will let us know which books are in demand.
- Use this time to try out new authors, genres, or books you’ve been meaning to read that aren’t brand new.
- Try a different way of taking in a story using our digital collections via Libby and Hoopla.
We appreciate your patience as we work to navigate this issue.
