Mackin’s development specialists and in-house librarians would be happy to prepare a custom list for you at no cost. We can post your lists on mackin.com so that you can make changes online. We can also mail or fax a list to you or your district office that includes review sources, reading or interest levels, and annotations.

Mackin works with more than 18,000 publishers -- including regional, special interest and foreign language publishers -- to find the best titles to meet your school’s unique needs. Mackin also provides free processing, free cataloging and free shipping on all orders over $50. The price estimates you see on our bibliographic searches reflect the true bottom line.

Collection Analysis
Just like the annual trip to the doctor’s office, Mackin can perform a checkup on your library through a Collection Analysis. We recommend this procedure once a year to help you stay on top of your collection’s age and age-level appropriateness.

Mackin offers two Collection Analysis options ― online or custom. The online option allows you to select your own parameters on mackin.com, upload your records and view your results in just minutes. With a custom analysis, one of our library professionals will walk you through the process. Once we receive your MARC records, we can have a prognosis for your collection within hours.

Both options can include weeding recommendations and a list of updated titles for replenishment. Plus, our lists are not limited to a standing inventory. We draw on the resources of more than 18,000 publishers to give you the best possible selection.
