Baker & Taylor's Book Leasing program is a great way to temporarily
increase your library's number of popular books with the ability to return
them when patron demand has subsided.
When you begin using our Book Leasing service, your library will build
its own collection by retaining books ordered through the Monthly New Book
Quota until your collection reaches its proper size. Each month, a
pre-publication title list will be sent to you so that you may choose the

shelf-ready, with all cataloging and processing completed to your
specifications.

Senior Sales Representative for details on the Continuations and Standing Order Programs.
Freight Terms - Public and Academic Libraries: Shipments of
15 or more units from your primary distribution center or from your secondary
distribution center qualify for free freight. Shipments of less than 15 units
will be charged a flat $5.00 shipping fee. This flat fee amount is subject to
change with notice. Items picked, packed, and shipped together count as an
individual shipment. Ingram does not currently assess any additional fees for
shipping. However, given the unpredictable impact of rising oil prices, Ingram
reserves the right to assess a fuel surcharge with notice.
Freight Terms - K-12 School Libraries: Orders will ship FOB Destination with Ingram-paid freight from your Ingram-designated primary and secondary distribution centers. Should you choose to place an order from any of our other distribution centers, shipping charges averaging 3-7% of the total invoice price will be paid by Library. Orders for schools will ship with two shipments per purchase order. Any in stock, non-processed book will ship within 24 hours of order entry.

Credit card payments are not eligible for this discount. Payments must be postmarked by the 10th of the month to qualify for the 1% discount. This discount is shown on your invoice and must be taken at the time the invoice is paid and cannot be taken retroactively. These additional savings can be substantial when you take advantage of the prompt payment discount.

Ingram reserves the right to assess a late charge on all past due invoices.
