Dear Librarian:

We are pleased to offer you our latest list of publisher additions to the YBP Approval Plan program.

Each new imprint is described briefly, summarizing its subject focus and annual output.

We will establish notification slip coverage for all libraries where these publishers fit the subject profile. Please contact your Bibliographer-Liaison to arrange automatic book shipments, or to decline coverage. If you have asked us in the past not to establish automatic notification slip coverage, we will continue to honor your request. You may give specific instructions for the new publishers.

We have also listed imprints that have been dropped from our Approval Plan program and updates on presses we already cover.

To subscribe or unsubscribe to the listserv, please send a message to ybpapprovalnews-request@lists.obs-us.com with "subscribe" or "unsubscribe" in the subject line. Or you may contact Dawn Johnson at djohnson@ybp.com.

As always, we welcome your suggestions. Most additions to the list are made in response to library customer demand. If there are presses you think you and your colleagues would like to collect via your approval plan, please notify your sales or customer service representative.

Sincerely,

Nat Bruning
Director of Operations
