Hi Pamela,

I think the Barnes & Noble or Borders suggestion is best and
cheapest.

If you are not already, prepare yourselves to review the
comment book on a daily basis to remove pages with offensive
comments.  We had a comment book during an exhibition of
glass work by Dale Chihuly last year -- ended up with lots
of lewd, racist, sexist, etc. comments (written mostly by
unsupervised school children).  We checked every day . . .
cut out pages with such comments with an Exacto knife.

Sincerely,

Jay Heuman, Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator
