Libraries Scramble for Books After Giant Distributor Shuts Down
This story was reported with support from the MuckRock foundation.One of the largest distributors of print books for libraries is winding down operations by the end of the year, a huge disruption to public libraries across the country, some of which are warning their communities the shut down will limit their ability to lend books.
“You might notice some delays as we (and more than 6,000 other libraries) transition to new wholesalers,” the Jacksonville Public Library told its community in a Facebook post. “We're keeping a close eye on things and doing everything we can to minimize any wait times.”
The libraries that do business with the distributor learned about the shut down earlier this month via Reddit.
Upon learning of her company’s closure, Jennifer Kennedy, a customer services account manager with Baker & Taylor, broke the news on October 6 on r/Libraries Reddit community.
“I just wanted the libraries to know,” Kennedy told 404 Media. “I didn’t want them to be held hostage waiting for books that would never come. I respect them too much for all this nonsense.”
Kennedy’s post prompted other current and former B&T employees to confirm the announcement and express concern for the competitors about to be inundated with requests from the libraries who would be scrambling for new suppliers.
B&T in Memoriam
Baker & Taylor has been in the book business just short of 200 years. Its primary focus was distributing physical copies of books to public libraries. The company also provided librarians with tools that helped them do their jobs more effectively related to collection development and processing.But the company has spent decades being acquired by and divested from private equity firms, served as a revolving door for senior leadership, and was sued by a competitor earlier this year for alleged data misuse and was almost acquired again in September, this time by a distributor that works with mass-market retailers like Walmart and Target. That deal fell through.
On October 7, Publishers Weekly reported B&T let go of more than 500 employees the day the internal announcement was made. At least one law firm is currently investigating B&T for allegedly violating the federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, and it took the company weeks to let account holders know.
Since the internal announcement, Kennedy says customer service staff at B&T have not received guidance on how to respond to inquiries from libraries, leaving them on the frontline and in the dark on issues ranging from whether existing orders would be fulfilled to securing refunds for materials they may have already paid for.
“Some libraries didn’t realize we are much closed as of right now,” Kennedy added.
B&T did not respond when asked for comment.
Kennedy has been with B&T for 16 years. At a time when it's uncommon to remain with one company more than a few years, that’s exactly what many of B&T’s employees have been able to do, until now. The same was true of the libraries who did business with them. Andrew Harant, director of Cuyahoga Falls Library had to consider the library's longstanding business relationship with the company against the roughly 20 percent of books the library had ordered from the beginning of the year they had never received.
“For us, that was about 1,500 items,” which Harant told 404 Media that for a small library is a lot of books they were ordering and not receiving.
Release dates for new books come and go on B&T’s main software platform for viewing and managing orders, Title Source 360. Better known as TS360, Harant realized the platform was updating preordered books never received to on backorder, which was “not sustainable”.
In September, Cuyahoga Falls Library canceled all outstanding orders with B&T.
“We needed to step up and make sure that we’re getting the books for our patrons that they needed,” he said.
Cuyahoga Falls Library was fortunate to have an existing account with the other main distributor on the scene, Ingram Content Group. This has been true for many of the libraries 404 Media reached out to for this story.
“The easier part is re-ordering the book,” Shellie Cocking, Chief of Collections and Technical Services for the San Francisco Public Library, told 404 Media. “The harder part is replacing the tools you use to order books.”
Integrated Fallout
Of the ancillary services B&T offered customers, TS360 was Cocking’s favorite. It helped her streamline collection development tasks, for instance, anticipating how popular a title might be or determining how many quantities of a book to purchase, which for larger libraries with dozens of branches, could be complicated to figure out manually. Once titles were ordered in TS360, B&T shared a Machine-Readable Cataloging (MARC) record that was automatically shared with the library’s API integration using data derived from B&T’s record set. This product, BTCat, was the subject of a lawsuit brought by OCLC earlier this year.OCLC owns WorldCat, the global union catalog of library collections that lets anyone see what libraries own what items. OCLC alleged in a U.S. district court filing that B&T misused their proprietary bibliographic records to populate its own competing cataloguing database. OCLC also accused B&T of inserted clauses into its contracts where there was overlap with the businesses and customers, requiring libraries to grant B&T access to their cataloging records so the libraries could then license the records back to B&T for BTCat. B&T has denied these claims, accusing OCLC of stifling fair competition in an already consolidated marketplace.
Marshall Breeding, an independent consultant who monitors library vendor mergers has been following all of this rather closely. He says B&T's closure creates a number of bottlenecks for libraries, the primary one being whether suppliers like Ingram or Brodart can absorb thousands of libraries as customers all at once.
“Maybe, maybe not,” Breeding told 404 Media. “It’s going to take them a while to set up the business relationships and technical things that have to be set up for libraries to automatically order books from the providers.”
But one thing is evident.
“Libraries are kind of in a weaker position just scrambling to find a vendor at all,” he added.
Less competition in the market makes for more challenging working conditions all around. Just ask Erin Hughes, director of the Wood Ridge Memorial Library in New Jersey, made the move over to Ingram after a series of negative experiences with B&T in 2021 from late and damaged deliveries to customer service calls that went poorly, to say the least. Hughes worries her experience with B&T will happen again, only this time with Ingram.
Since the Reddit announcement, she's noticed it's a little more difficult to get a rep on the phone and the number of shipments to the library is smaller. But the other way Hughes is seeing the problem play out involves the consortium her library belongs to. While she may have foregone B&T years ago, her network hasn't, which affects the operability of InterLibrary Loan lending.
“The resource sharing is going to be off for a bit,” Hughes told 404 Media.
Amazon Incoming
If Ingram’s service stagnates due to the B&T cluster, Hughes says she'll use Amazon, which recently launched its own online library hub, offering competitive pricing. One downside, says Hughes, is that it's Amazon.“No, we do have a little bit of pause around Amazon,” she added. “But we’re at a point now where Ingram actually does supply most of the books for Amazon. So we’re already in the devil’s pocket. It’s all connected. It’s all integrated. And as much as I personally don’t care for the whole thing, I don’t really see a lot of other options.”
It's hard not to think this outcome was predictable and also preventable. We know what happens when private equity gets involved with businesses not expected to generate high growth or returns, as well as what happens when there's too little market competition in any given sector. It can't be a cautionary tale because market consolidation is in itself a cautionary tale.
But it’s also worth acknowledging how the timing could not be worse. Library use is way up right now, which is indicative of the times. People are buying less for various reasons. People also seem to like the idea of putting a little friction between their media consumption habits and Big Brother, even at the expense of a little convenience.
“We kind of made our own bed a little bit because we didn’t branch out,” said Hughes. “We didn’t find other solutions to this, and we were relying essentially on two giant companies, one of which folded so quick it was not even funny.”

Smilitarizziamo la città!
Il 4 novembre, nell’anniversario della “vittoria” nella prima guerra mondiale, in Italia si festeggiano le forze armate, si festeggia un immane massacro per spostare un confine.
In quella guerra a migliaia scelsero di gettare le armi e finirono davanti ai plotoni di esecuzione.
La memoria dei disertori e dei senzapatria di allora vive nella solidarietà concreta con chi oggi diserta le guerre che insanguinano il pianeta.
Le celebrazioni militari del 4 novembre, servono a giustificare enormi spese militari, l’invio delle armi e l’impegno diretto dell’Italia nelle missioni militari all’estero, in difesa dei propri interessi neocoloniali.
In ogni dove ci sono governi che pretendono che si uccida per spostare un confine, per annientare i “nemici”, altri esseri umani massacrati in nome della patria, della religione, degli interessi di pochi potenti.
In ogni dove c’è chi si oppone, c’è chi diserta le guerre degli Stati, chi straccia le bandiere di ogni nazione, perché sa che solo un’umanità internazionale potrà gettare le fondamenta di quel mondo di libere e liberi ed uguali che ciascuno di noi porta nel proprio cuore.
A due passi dalle nostre case ci sono le fabbriche che costruiscono le armi usate nelle guerre che insanguinano il pianeta.
Torino sta diventando uno dei maggiori centri dell’industria bellica: cacciabombardieri, droni, sistemi di puntamento vengono progettati a costruiti nella nostra città.
Dal 2 al 4 dicembre sbarcheranno a Torino le principali industrie del settore a livello mondiale per la decima edizione dell’Aerospace and defense meetings, mercato internazionale dell’industria aerospaziale di guerra.
Un evento a porte chiuse, riservato agli addetti ai lavori: governi, eserciti, agenzie di contractor che faranno buoni affari. Affari di morte. La scorsa edizione sono stati siglati 9.000 contratti di vendita di congegni micidiali, destinati a tutti i teatri di guerra.
Nelle scuole bambine, bambini, ragazze e ragazzi, vengono sottoposti ad una martellante campagna di arruolamento, ad una sempre più marcata propaganda nazionalista.
Nelle strade della nostra città militari armati di mitra e manganello affiancano polizia e carabinieri nel controllo, etnicamente mirato, delle periferie più povere.
Vogliono farci credere che non possiamo fare nulla per contrastare le guerre.
Chi promuove, sostiene ed alimenta le guerre ci vorrebbe impotenti, passivi, inermi. Non lo siamo.
Ogni volta che un militare entra in una scuola possiamo metterci di mezzo, quando sta per aprire una fabbrica d’armi possiamo metterci di mezzo, quando decidono di fare esercitazioni vicino alle nostre case possiamo metterci di mezzo.
Le guerre cominciano da qui.
Contro tutte le patrie per un mondo senza frontiere!

We remember Rabbi Arthur Waskow, a beloved activist rabbi who was a leading voice connecting Jewish spirituality to justice-oriented politics.
He was committed to speaking up against Israeli military violence. On Rosh Hashanah in 1982, after Israeli backed massacres at Sabra & Shatila, he chanted an article describing the horrific killings as a substitute for the traditional reading.
He passed away at the age of 92.

I'd like to parse ipv4 addresses given as command line argument values.
I have got two arguments accepting ipv4 address.
If I specify single such option all is fine.
If I specify both, I 'm getting error like this:
thread 'main' (624061) panicked at /home/peto/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-1949cf8c6b5b557f/clap-3.2.25/src/parser/matches/arg_matches.rs:1879:13:
Must use `Arg::allow_invalid_utf8` with `_os` lookups at `[hash: A8F400C40154F09]`This is simplified version of my code showcasing the issue:
```

let local_ip = IpAddr::V4(matches.get_one::<Ipv4Addr>("listenaddress").expect("Invalid address"));
println!("Listening on local IP: {local_ip}");
println!("Relaying through external IP: {external_ip}");
}}
```
Sensitive content
--socket argument is required, other two arguments are supposed to be used together and this condition is tested at runtime.
So if I specify all three command line arguments, I am always getting that error.
I have attempted using os::str and casting but the issue remains. I am simply compiling the app with cargo build --release.
Have you been just adding stuff I may have overlooked when trying to simplify for posting or did you actually changed something please?
I have changed it to use std::path::PathBuf and it's working fine for me now.
Huge thanks for friendly hint and looking at my code.

receiving a spam call:
- pissed bc it's a spam call
- pleased bc they called me sir right after hearing my voice
I've been passing 100% of the time now, but I still had issues with how I perceived my voice 🐁
