Rush Ordering
Sometimes you need a book quickly – whether it's to satisfy an interlibrary loan request, to put on reserve, or to hand to a faculty member. YBP’s RUSH2 service, powered by the immense inventory and growing print-on-demand services of Baker and Taylor, will meet your needs.
YBP proudly offers the fastest, most efficient Rush service of any academic bookseller. Our RUSH2 service, is accessible through the GOBI® interface for titles in any Baker & Taylor distribution facility. Through GOBI you can view all "RUSH eligible" inventory, identify purchases, customize the delivery address and choose your rush shipping method, e.g. overnight, second-day or ground shipping. As with all GOBI orders, YBP's duplication control and transaction details apply. Orders placed before noon Eastern Time can be scheduled for next-day delivery.
This material is shipped from any one of four Baker & Taylor distribution facilities direct to your library with invoicing and all customer service by YBP. We furnish e-mailed confirmation with UPS tracking information for the rush delivery that will arrive in specially marked packages. YBP usually provides discount on these RUSH2 titles, as well as free ground shipping. The library pays shipping charges for overnight or second-day delivery.
YBP’s RUSH2 service is currently limited to our customers in the United States, though we are seeking to expand to the rest of North America, and eventually to our customers throughout the world.
Your YBP collection development manager will get you started upon request. Please contact us if you have any questions.
