We stopped using sticks about 5 years ago. No problems at all - It is so
much easier without the sticks. Patrons appreciate not having to deal
with them.  We kept the most recent editions of the NYT, Wall Street
Journal, USA Today and a few local papers on the sticks. Getting rid of
the sticks and using a nice oak rack instead was a great move for us.

Subject: [SERIALST] Newspapers on sticks

Hello!

Has anyone stopped using newspaper sticks?  If so, has it been a
problem?  We currently keep the following on sticks -- most recent daily
edition of the NYT, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Philadelphia
Inquirer and our local paper; most recent Sunday edition of the NYT,
Washington Post, Philadelphia Inquirer and our local paper.

Thanks,

Ken
