Newspaper Delivery

As most of you know, we have had issues with the Sunday papers being stolen. I have contacted both the Cape Cod Times and the Boston Globe, and have asked them to have the Sunday papers put in either the mail box or the book drop. Whether or not this happens is another story. Also, though I requested this for the Sunday deliveries, if you can't find a paper on a weekday, you may want to check the mailbox and book drop. Hopefully the delivery people will be able to make the change.

Another issue has been people stealing the Sunday paper off the shelf on Tuesday morning. SIGH. I want to try keeping the Sunday papers at the desk - just for the day - to see if that helps solve the problem.

Questions, please see me.

Thanks!

Boston Globe

Some of you may be aware that we have had periodic problems with the Boston Globe in terms of billing and delivery. I thought the situation was fixed when I paid for a subscription IN FULL for a year Back on October, but apparently not. We have been missing weekend papers, and being billed again.

The Boston Globe took our money for the yearly 7 day a week subscription and applied it to someone else's account. I have sent the Globe the documentation that we have paid for a 7 day subscription FOR A YEAR, and I expect to have this resolved next week. It may take a weekend or two before they get their act together.

In the meantime, if a patron asks, just let them know that there was a problem with our subscription, and we hope to have the problem remedied shortly.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

EXTRA Cape Cod Times

On Tuesdays, there might be one or two EXTRA copies of the Cape Cod Times delivered to us. If so, please leave one extra copy with me (and if there are more extras than that, patrons are free to take). The CCT is doing a specila on Lincoln in conjunction with the schools, and I have signed up for that program (for Dennis Reads).

Thanks!
