"We purchased the Playaways through Follett Library Resources, the only source for them that I know of. We allow the students to check out the whole unit, and we do require that they also check out the companion book. This program has been very successful with all grade levels and is particularly helpful to our English as a New Language population.
I use TITLEWAVE, the online Follett ordering mechanism, for almost all of my ordering. I have found that Follett Library Resources is outstanding in every way and have used them for many years. Fill rate is excellent and the website is very user–friendly. I do not actually order online, rather print out my orders when I am ready as quotations and send the print copy to our central office who in turn sends on to Follett. Follett sends MARC records, which can be downloaded into any circ/catalog system, to my online account when orders are ready to ship. Accounts can be customized for ordering any way you wish. If you need help with TITLEWAVE or any of the Follett services, such as TitleWise Collection Analysis, which is very helpful in determining strengths and weakness of your collections, contact a Library Service Consultant. Im certain theyll be happy to assist if you need help in setting up an online account for your library."

"I needed a way to display our new Playaway titles for our students, because I wanted to let everyone know about our new Playaway collection (we didnt have any audio books prior to these). Luckily, Follett packages them in nice stand-up boxes, so I was able to display them all out on the front counter without having to find other material to showcase them. Also, Follett also had a nice color sheet advertising the Playaways - perfect for our display! All I needed to add was a short description, and right away, we had an instant display. It was exactly what we needed, too. Within minutes of finishing the display, we had students checking them out. When I returned from lunch that day, the supervising librarian assistant walked up to me with a big smile on her face and said shed never seen anything like it: in our comfy reading chairs, we had several of our rowdiest students curled up, listening to different books.
Since then, our Playaways have had a steady stream of customers, and we couldnt be happier. Were always excited to be in on the latest thing, and the students are excited too! I use TITLEWAVE a lot as well to search for different titles, Playaway or otherwise, and it so easy. My Account Manager is always there for anything I need. Thanks for all your help, Follett!"

"I love the Playaways! I think that Follett has stepped up to the plate and taken a step toward providing new technology for Lower School students. As a Lower School librarian, I really appreciate it. Much of the new technology introduced to schools is geared toward middle and upper school students. It is nice to see something new and exciting for my younger students!"

"My Account Manager suggested I share with you how we use the Read-At-Home Backpacks here at Pine Bush Elementary School. We purchased a backpack for each of our kindergarten, first, and second grade classes. In addition to the book and activity sheet that comes with the backpack, we also include a letter from me explaining the program and a marble notebook for parents and/or students to write a note or draw a picture about their experience sharing the books. The classroom teachers keep track of who has the backpack on a sign-out sheet we prepare.
The Read-at-Home Backpack program was highly successful last year. Parents and kids loved cuddling up and sharing the books. The journals were really fun to read."

"Once again, I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful meeting yesterday and all of the excellent information and support that sprang from it!
From my beginning in the profession, I have been impressed with Follett Library Resources, and yesterday was one more strong example of your exceptional professionalism, resources, assistance, understanding, and much more.
I look forward to working with you on how we can bring the East Hills Middle School Media Center up to the standards Ive always wished for from the start. Although it will no doubt be a long journey, it is reassuring to know that we finally feel in a position to take action and move in the right direction with your help.
Two hours is a long amount of time in anyones work day, so again, my most sincere appreciation for devoting your morning to Nutan and me, we greatly enjoyed the discussion and are excited about the possibilities ahead."

"I feel a great need to pause in the midst of this hectic year to send you a word: thanks. Actually, it should be THANKS! Opening a new school takes so much more effort than I remembered. There are new facilities and new equipment; new relationships and new procedures; just about new everything except my old friend and comrade-in-books, my Account Manager.
Ira A. Fulton Elementary School recently had its dedication. So many people, from the Fulton family to visiting dignitaries, paused in the library and took note of our wonderful collection. Even more noteworthy is the fact that every day, students, teachers, and even parents tell me how wonderful the Fulton Library is. I know it wouldnt have happened so well without my Account Manager.
Follett continues to be my professional solace for the books we need and the software to keep everything humming. I, too, am humming a happy tune because of the results you helped me achieve. All those visits, phone calls, emails, and hours hefting books are most appreciated by all of us at Fulton Elementary School. Please accept my heartfelt thanks."

"Last year was my first year as a librarian and I was consumed with cataloging titles and having to figure out what needed to be purchased in my library without ordering duplicate titles. TITLEWAVE, TitleWise and TitleCheck helped me greatly last year and I look forward to working with Follett Library Resources this year as well. I loved how TITLEWAVE will show if a title on my list was ordered in the past or if it is on a current list. I also like the SLJ lists. They give me ideas for current title selection. TITLEWAVE has allowed me to spend more time helping my students, not ordering."

"I first contacted my Library Service Consultant this summer, letting her know that my district had just approved the initiation of a preschool classroom library program. Explaining that I needed quickly to select books that coordinated with the Pre-K themed curriculum, my Library Service Consultant swiftly swung into action. Taking into consideration the various guidelines and recommended reading lists I supplied, she provided me with excellent theme-based lists of books to consider. Not only did I appreciate the expertise with which she organized the titles for me to select, but I especially appreciated the professional dialogs we engaged in, which helped me greatly to clarify my start-up preschool library procedures and goals. Being able to consult with my Library Service Consultant, who is as personable as she is knowledgeable about books and preschoolers, has been an immeasurable blessing as I meet my new responsibilities. Quite frankly, what seemed like an overwhelming task when I first was given the selection timetable became an easy-to-accomplish joy with her partnership and assistance. I relied on my Library Service Consultant, and time and time again, she came through for me!"
"Not only did my Library Service Consultant do her piece of the job efficiently and effectively, but she never dropped the ball, even when her piece was accomplished. Rather, she continued coordinating with other team members (both behind the scenes and in conference calls) to make sure that the entire process ran smoothly."
"Although I have commended my Library Service Consultant personally for what I have found to be exemplary performance, and have let my supervisor know the same, I felt it was important – and only conscionable – to let you know how impressed and grateful I am for all her assistance. As you know, there are a number of vendors that we can choose from. On behalf of Follett Library Resources, my Library Service Consultant has earned my respect, loyalty, and trust."
Thank you for supporting and empowering your Library Service Consultants to give the kind of customized care that clients find endearing. Kudos to you."

"How do you shelve 20,000 books in two days? Call Follett!"
"As a first year librarian opening a new middle school, I was a little bit apprehensive about the task of arranging 20,000 books. I couldnt picture what that would be like. Luckily my Account Manager calmed my nerves by quickly answering my numerous questions, and assuring me he would be there to help with the process. True to his word, he was able to receive the delivery while I was in a meeting, and stayed close by my side while unloading all 550+ boxes and shelving a few thousand books himself! The true Dewey order was fantastic and helped ensure a speedy set up. I would highly recommend Follett to anyone opening a new library."
"Thanks, Follett and thanks to my Account Manager for a great beginning!"

"I wanted to thank you for taking care of my request so promptly and enjoyable this afternoon.
The Playaways™ are getting taken out as quickly as "chip and dip at a party"! The students really enjoy them, so do the teachers, the librarians we service from our Genesee Valley BOCES Media Library, and other school related personnel.
They are easy to use, easy to understand, and very enjoyable! We cant keep our 75 units on the shelf. As soon as they are sent back to us, they are booked to go out again. We plan to order more of these cool and innovative ways to get students to love storybooks and the wonderful imaginative world they offer.
Thank you again."

"Thank you for all your help and patience with me. I love using your system. Our secretary finds it the best system to work with also. I appreciate that my Local Account Manager took the time to show us how to use many of the programs. We have used the service to identify our strengths and weaknesses, and this will make a great tool when we order for the 2007-08 school year. Again thank you."

"I recently attended Spring Book Look and while there I was reminded why I use Follett Library Resources almost exclusively. My library opened 4 years ago with a $500 yearly book budget. Despite the small budget, my Local Account Manager continued to stop by and show me how to use TITLEWAVE, upload records into TitleWise®, drop off posters and catalogs, and check in and make sure we knew he was available should we need anything. Of course, TITLEWAVE is a huge help. Teachers use it all the time to look up reading levels and search for titles for different units they are developing. Our tiny budget was spent at Follett Library Resources because of the ease of TITLEWAVE and ordering, as well as for our Local Account Manager and all he did for us.
This year we received a huge federal grant. Word got out to vendors, and they have been calling me nonstop. The first question I ask is: Where were you before we got the grant? I then proceed to tell them that Follett Library Resources and our Local Account Manager supported our school no matter how much money I had to spend.
It only seems fair to tell you that Follett Library Resources service is unparalleled. Thanks for the great service and especially for our Local Account Manager. He is the best... he really has Philadelphia school libraries interest at heart."

"I just had to send a quick note to thank you for the new TITLEWAVE feature that allows me to save items as whole sets! I recently started working on my next order with Follett Library Resources using the wonderful collection development tools on the TITLEWAVE website and was very excited and pleased to see the new feature. Ive been waiting for this change and it came just in time to use on my new order."

"Wonderful!
Its been a pleasure corresponding with you. I want you to know that Ive been very pleased with Follett Library Resources, when it comes to ease-of-order, customer service, and my Local Account Manager.
To be honest, I avoided ordering from Follett Library Resources for a year after I took this position. I did finally learn that the companies I was using did not offer the level of support and care that I wished to see. Follett Library Resources does.
The manner in which you have handled my bungling of this order very clearly reflects that commitment to customer care and support. I appreciate that a great deal.
Thanks so much!"

"I had to write to tell you how happy I am with the latest orders I placed with Follett Library Resources. The two shipments idea is fantastic. I got the first batch right away, and the other came soon after. All the orders I placed lately have been absolutely accurate, and you came so close to the Do Not Exceed amount I could not believe it.
I am especially impressed with the speed that the orders have been filled. You have certainly streamlined your warehouse operations to get things in and out more quickly, and that is such a positive improvement.
Thanks so much for a job well done! You will have my loyalty and business in the future."

"I have been a librarian for 27 years. Whatever did I do before I discovered Follett Library Resources?
Thats the question I ask myself every time I need materials for my library.
Follett Library Resources has all the answers. All I have to do is pick up the phone and ask. Or, when I have more time, I go online to TITLEWAVE and have a wonderful time searching for materials.
Ahhh, TITLEWAVE. What a state-of-the-art tool. All of my librarys personal data right there at my fingertips. Ordering books has never been so easy. Order my AR tests along with my books. Make comparisons and ask for titles or tests I already have.
I frequently go to TitleWise for my individual librarys collection analyses. Amazing. And so easy and simple to do.
Each library is assigned to a very knowledgeable Account Manager of Follett Library Resources to help answer our questions. All I have to do is tell my Account Manager a few details of what I want and how much money I have and voilà – in a matter of a very short time my list is on my TITLEWAVE log in page for me to print out and hand in with a purchase order. My materials come fully processed according to my specifications along with an electronic email to download and integrate my new material into my collection.
For example, my principal got an unexpected grant of $1500.00. She needed a list from me within an hour, meeting the grants guidelines. I called Follett Library Resources, explained the circumstances and within 20 minutes we had a list to print out.
Thank you, Follett Library Resources. I love and appreciate how you make my job much easier with having so many things to do and so little time to spare."

"Without a doubt, the monumental task of opening a new school library was made so much easier for me thanks to the unending support of the entire Follett Library Resources team.
I know not where to begin when it comes to thanking my Follett Library Resources Account Manager. He kept in close contact with me throughout the entire process. On every occasion, whether it be our countless face-to-face meetings, emails filled with questions, or phone calls, I was greeted courteously and always felt that I had his support throughout the process. He even came dressed to help the day we put thousands of books, shipped by Follett Library Resources, on the shelves.
The Follett Library Resources support team also proved to be invaluable with their assistance. The very few issues that we had were taken care of within several days by the Customer Care Consultants assigned to me. The personal attention given to me once again from this department of the company makes me a loyal Follett Library Resources customer.
As a new media specialist, the ease of working with TITLEWAVE was a true godsend. I continue to use TITLEWAVE nearly everyday. Developing a collection from the beginning, TITLEWAVE became my lifeline. At every step of the way I could see how much money I was spending, I could easily review all the books in a particular series, and I could balance my developing collection in innumerable ways. I cant imagine not using TITLEWAVE to build a new library collection.
I highly recommend Follett Library Resources to media specialists who are charged with building a new library collection."

"Follett Library Resources was with me every step of the way in my journey to open a new middle school in Falls Church, Virginia (grades 5-7) in 2004. I can honestly say that TitleWise has been my collection development lifesaver. It is open on my desktop every morning and is also used when students or teachers ask me about a book – to read reviews, determine age-appropriateness, locate a call number, or to generate lists. With Follett Library Resources, outstanding customer service and person-to-person contact build a lasting bond for business. I cannot say enough about my Account Manager, who is always there for me when I have a question or concern. He gave his time to help shelve the opening collection (without the benefit of air conditioning) those first few days after a mound of boxes arrived. Thank you, Follett Library Resources, for your excellence!"

"I knew I was pushing things when I submitted my order only last week (Tuesday, January 23rd) and then asked if it could be delivered by Monday, February 5th. It came today, Friday, February 2nd, and 95% filled! You folks are fantastic! Thank you for your help on this special request. Not only do I appreciate your fine service on this order, but on every other that I have received. We love your service and your products here!"

"I am not a big fan of previewing the books. Since Im a high school librarian I deal in larger quantities of books to order than the elementary school librarians in my district. I just would not have the time to preview, which is why TITLEWAVE is so indispensable to me: it helps me enormously in my job. What would be better than previewing the physical books would be to expand the online viewing options of books. Currently, some books can be viewed (other than the cover image), such as table of contents, sample pages, etc. I realize there are huge copyright issues involved, but I would MUCH prefer to preview books online rather than open and unpack boxes, sort, preview, take notes, pack books not kept, etc."
"I love the continuing improvements to TITLEWAVE, especially the listing of titles on other lists. Follett Library Resources is such a responsive company for librarians – thank you!

"This morning I talked to one of your Customer Care Consultants about having both my schools in TITLEWAVE for specs and wish lists. I told her how wonderful I think Follett Library Resources is and how helpful the site and the people are. Last year I was able to take the collection development suggestion list and pick and choose from it as money became available. Everyone is pleased and impressed with our collection; they want to know how I did it and swear they wouldnt have been able to pull it off. Theyre impressed with me. I just smile and tell them I know what resources to use...my resources? Follett Library Resources and all that you offer! You make me look good as a librarian! Thanks.
This year when I was sent to Fitzhugh Lee to re-do their library, I was told to ‘work the magic again.’ I smiled quietly, knowing full well, Id be back on that TITLEWAVE Web site!
I wish you all could have seen these ‘bad kids’, kids in alternative school, oohing and aahing over brand new books, rubbing the covers with care, smelling that new smell. I wish you all could have seen these teenagers whove been in jail and have to be escorted through the halls turn to me and say, ‘How did we get new books? Who cares about us, Ms. Early?’, and ‘Can we really check them out? We can use them?’ Im a hero around here. But I couldnt have done it without you. Thanks for helping me give to the kids who need it most and need it desperately. They truly appreciate it. I will continue to use your services whenever I can."

"Last year I found myself in the unenviable task of running the library here at Liberty Elementary School...and launching Accelerated Reader all by myself. I would have gone stark raving mad had it not been for my Account Manager. He went above and beyond the call of duty to help me. His tireless enthusiasm and assistance was immeasurable. He kept me sane enough to witness our circulation numbers reach their highest level ever. He recommended series and titles for me to purchase which soon became kids favorites.
I would also like to recognize my Customer Care Consultant. She always cheerfully handled every situation. When a book was received damaged, one phone call to her took care of it. Any questions I have are always answered promptly. My Account Manager and Customer Care Consultant are a fantastic team and are outstanding representatives of Follett Library Resources superior customer service.
I love TITLEWAVE, too. It is a fantastic resource/tool for us. I wouldnt have thought it possible to improve it, but the latest adaptation, with the capability of downloading our AR quizzes to generate lists of ‘Quiz/no book’ or ‘Book/no quiz’ is the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Again, many, many thanks to Follett Library Resources. I wont purchase books anywhere else."

"I absolutely LOVE the new features added to TitleCheck™. It is a great time saver to have you comparing our current selections to previous lists we have compiled. With budget dollars so tight I do not want to order a duplicate copy unintentionally, and this saves me having to check my other lists."

"Opening a new school Library is a daunting task. The Follett Library Resource Corporation and my local Account Manager made this overwhelming assignment a lot easier. He was there to help me in a variety of ways. He broke down the pallets of boxes and moved them from the drop point to the Library. For two days he helped me put the books on the shelves. When I needed to replace titles for curriculum reasons, he worked with me to box up the books and expedite the replacement titles. My Account Manager is always available by phone or email for any questions or problems. All the service I received I feel went over and above. I never could have been able to open the new Library so soon if it had not been for the help and service from Follett."

"TITLEWAVE helped me do my formal observation project last year. I based my observation on updating our science and social studies collection to help our 4-5 graders better prepare for the state tests which are taken each year. I studied sample state tests and looked at topics covered. I used TitleWise to get rid of our old materials then of course TITLEWAVE to find new materials. One of my goals was to show that the age of the science and social study collection improved.
My principal was impressed with the charts and statistics I printed out from TitleWise (and in color!). I was thrilled when at the end of the year Roosevelt Elementary Schools science and social studies collection improved by three years after weeding. I showed my principal the Collection Analysis Overview from the beginning of the year to June and how the average age improved. I felt like TitleWise did most of the work for me! I felt like I was doing a commercial for TITLEWAVE by showing my principal all the neat features it has for our library.

"I have purchased 20 Playaway Digital products..., and they are continually checked out. I cant say enough about how great these products are for my students and staff.
Playaway Digital Media is the future of audiobooks. I buy our required curriculum on audio books and shelve them with our regular books, yet their use is limited as many homes dont even have a cassette player anymore and protecting the CDs and their risk of loss and damage is often greater than the opportunity they provide in use."

"This Summer I opened my third new library within the past 14 years. This was by far my best experience yet. The entire process, from placing the order to shelving the books, went very smoothly. Only those who have lived through this process can appreciate Folletts True Dewey packaging. With 3 parent volunteers and our account manager, we were able to shelve over 13,000 books in less than 2 days. Thanks, Follett, for a job well done!"

Imagine all these things and I have a company representative who is knowledgeable, warm, and generous with his time! I always recommend Follett."

"I would like to compliment Follett Library Resources for the wonderful customer support I have received in implementing an opening day collection for our new Canyon Oaks Elementary School in American Canyon. As usual, my Account Manager has been a great resource in expediting the orders. He is always so calm and organized! The opening day collection list was a fabulous basic starter list which I easily customized to fit more of the California standards. Customer Service has been terrific with documentation, follow up, and suggestions! It feels wonderful to be on schedule with this collection and to know I have the best support possible in case there is some sort of unforeseen snag.
Its interesting that over the years that my admin team has come to view Follett as more of a resource than a vendor. Napa Valley Unified School District has had a well-established relationship with you and we remember that we were treated with the same level of customer service whether we were doing small orders or large opening day collections.
Again thanks to everyone!"

"I found myself in a situation that needed immediate correction. I called Follett Library Resources Customer Service. They spent time with me adjusting the order and helping me to order different books. Customer Service was wonderful! They were patient, helpful, understanding, efficient, organized, and just plain pleasant. It was so nice to work with a person instead of a voicemail machine. They spent a lot of time with me and I was appreciative of their efforts."

"Sheridan Elementary School in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, recently had the pleasure of working with one of Follett Library Resources Account Managers in ordering the very finest materials for early readers. I was impressed with both your representatives knowledge of the product and the product itself. We ordered more than $1,000 worth of SandCastle series books and have already found great success with our young students. The visuals, print, and nonfiction emphasis are all extremely motivating for the otherwise reluctant readers in our building. Your use of photographs depicting a diversity of cultures is very much appreciated here at Sheridan in particular, where more than 80% of the student population is a minority.
I look forward to working with your Account Managers again in the future and have recommended this series to my peers as a valuable tool in teaching children using nonfiction materials."
