Re: MODERATOR--Commercial activitiy (better read this one)



Forget about collectors! (I'm one, so I don't really mean that literally.) Don't librarians and bibliographic scholars have a need to buy books as part of their every day activity? Isn't it, therefore, advantageous for them to know of the existence of newly-available books as early as possible? Isn't it a service to them for booksellers to post notices of newly-available catalogues?

Can't we have both, Ken?  I collect catalogs and find
some of them more interesting than some books.  They
also lead me to books that I did not know about before.

The catalogs in the backs of century old books are my
greatest source of new acquisitions.
