After searching, input the order into Scotty. DO NOT put in vendor, price, or print a PO. Be sure to write down PO number.

Once you have a PO number, First try B&T Link Online (See B&T Link Online Procedures)

Write any necessary information on your paperwork.

All titles not ordered from Baker & Taylor should be ordered from Book House using their Order Database at http://www.thebookhouse.com. (See The Book House Web Ordering Procedures.)

"OP" or "Pub. Out of Stock" should be searched on the web at ABE Books (www.abebooks.com) and/or Alibris for Libraries (www.alibris.com/librarians-home.cfm). If not available there, you may also try http://www.bookfinder.com or http://www.addall.com/jad which are good web sources that search several book dealer sites at once.

For those titles you will order from Book House check the "Need by" date for the quarter requested. If that date has passed or is very near, you should specify Rush, otherwise put the need by date in the Notes field in Book House's Order Database. Follow The Book House Web Ordering Procedures to order online.

When finished, take all paperwork to Scotty for updating.
