This sounds like a great idea, Stephanie! Over the next few days, I can take a look at state contracts that are posted to see if there is already a "template" for this type of material request out there, or, if not, possibly identify a vendor who could provide these totes for a discount(ed) price. Anyone who is interested in this idea, please respond to the CTLS e-mail list so that I can get a general idea as to the quantities that we're looking at. Thanks, and Happy Holidays y'all! Monique D.

The level of bag I am talking about would be probably be comparable to the ones that Whole Foods is about to start selling for 99cents in lieu of using plastic bags for your groceries. I noticed that JC Penny's now also offers a similar tote bag for $1.99. I have two questions: 1) Are any of you already providing something like this? 2) Would any of you be interested in getting together to purchase some cute bags like these with a kind of generic library message on them? If we design something really cute and appropriately generic then more libraries could use them and we could get a better price for them.
