Thanks very much Irina, i appreciate that YBP is making provision for these titles. with your permission, i'd like to pass your comments on to colleagues via our list serve, maps-l. would there be any point in having them contact you if they want this line of books added to the YBP approval program? Larry >>> Irina Castelot <[log in to unmask]> 04/17/02 08:23AM >>> Good morning Larry, I would like to let you know that ESRI Press is on the list to consider to add to approval publishers list. The decision will be made within a couple of months. Meanwhile we profile ESRI titles (listed in catalogue) as part of AP PLUS program, that allows us to profile and present to our customers exceptional titles from publishers not currently handled on YBP' Approval Plan. Unless otherwise instructed, we have established notification slip coverage for most approval plan libraries including UCSD. You will receive slips for books that fit your subject profile. These titles can be identified by "An AP Plus! title" in the notes field. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, Irina. Have a good day! *************************************************************** Irina Castelot Bibliographer YBP Library Services A Baker & Taylor Company 999 Maple Street Contoocook NH 03229 [log in to unmask] 1-800-258-3774, ext. 3217 -----Original Message----- From: Larry Cruse [ mailto:[log in to unmask]] <mailto:[log in to unmask]]> Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 4:18 PM To: [log in to unmask] Cc: [log in to unmask]; [log in to unmask] Subject: RE: anyone have an ESRI Press blanket order or approval plan?

I just spoke with the salesman about adding ESRI. It's a no-brainer for me as I purchase virtually everything they put out. As far as I know, 'they're working on it'. I'm optimistic.
