LET US REPLACE YOUR CARD CATALOG WITH AN INEXPENSIVE PAPERBACK.

Ifyou’ve wanted to convert to a book catalog but haven't because of economic considerations, we'd like to talk to you about your economics.

It does cost something initially to change over. But the statistics indicate that you get it all back.

Based on 1970 contracts, the average cost per title for all our book catalog customers came to under $1.25.

But for libraries still using card catalogs—even if they actually catalog only 20% of their acquisitions— the cost comes out to something like $2.60 per title. If you have 7,000 new acquisitions a year, for example, you save $9,450. (A book catalog will require periodic cumulations, of course. But even with this expense, most libraries come out ahead.)

Besides saving you money, a book catalog lets you do things you couldn’t do with a card catalog at any price. Such as making a virtually limitless number of copies. And sending copies out of the library to interested teachers, students, and other librarians.

For complete facts and figures, write us.

We’re not suggesting that a book catalog will make your library rich. But the way costs are going up, it could be the only thing in your library keeping it from growing poor.
