Hey thanks a ton, we have a new one that has just started up. I don't think they are at full speed yet so this should help them to help me some. I wish there was a way for the LDS to put their entire holdings order list online so that we could be armed with what we needed to order when we walked in the door. This would save us so much time seeing as how some of the sites have very limited hours. That way the rest of the visit could be used searching through what is already on site to begin with.
