Hello folks,
<div class="ContentPasted0">I'm curious how many purchase suggestions you allow individual patrons to make. Do you have a budget just for these items or a % of your budget you are willing to put towards them? How big is your collections department?</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">Our numbers are unsustainable for the size of our department and budget, so I want to get a better picture of what others are doing.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
Thanks!</div>

the Modoc Nation; as well as the Shasta, Takelma, and Latgawa people, whose descendants are now identified as members of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians and the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. JCLS is committed to fostering understanding, deep
respect, and honor for Indigenous people, and we encourage you to learn more about the land you reside on.
