Yankee Rights Management
Those of you on the North American academic library scene may be interested in the following note I received from Glen Secor of Yankee Book Peddler. We have made the link on the LIBLICENSE resources section. Although he didn't ask me to do it, I thought I would share the notice of the service with you, especially those who use Yankee as one of their book suppliers.
