Another great resource is Gaylord - who also deals with ALL sorts of
library & archival material, including furniture & equipment. But the
trick is to call and ask for their "Inside Sales" department and then
request a bid quote. The price they quote is anywhwere from 10 - 30%
below the catalog list price. I have dealt with them quite a bit over
the last 5 years and find their products to be good and their service
excellent!!
