P.O.Box 7488 Madison WI 53707 Is possibly the world's largest supplier of anything a library might want. I have bought everything from KikSteps to slow-grab adhesive plastic film (great for preserving conference proceedings) to bookends to book repair tape from them. They have a 300 page catalog, and two toll-free numbers: orders: (800) 356-1200 info: (800) 356-8394 These numbers are different in wisconsin. call 800 directory assistance. Their service is fast, and their inventory is huge. I've had only one out-of-stock in 10 orders or so. You may want to ask to see your local library's copy of their catalog; I found out about it by asking my librarian. They have five or six pages of plastic book covers or material to make your own.
