No. One of these is enough. Choose between what we have now and one of these two, but don't need multiple. KP
I also agree with Karen one of the two. KB

I liked this. It's different, and we do have a good size representation of farm folks in our service area. Let's try it. KP
I also like this one there is very good information there are collectors in this area. KB
This magazine is different from anything we have and Wisconsin is a farming state. SH
Yes. Good for collectors (we get questions on this in ref sometimes). I noticed in one of the write-in areas that a lot of responses were from the mid-west area--several WI including a neenah resident. I think we should get this. PW

Maybe. Reminds me a little bit of chicken soup for the soul. Not really for me, but patrons might like it. PW
Lots of people get it at home, and it's available at every church I've ever been in, but I agree, patrons would pick it up and read it here. KP

NO. Anyone who does this gets their own. KP
I liked this for just the opposite reason, someone newly interested in this hobby would find this very useful. MN
? SH
I'm leaning towards No. It seems a little too advance for a beginner (to me) and if some really get into the hobby they would probably get it themselves. PW

Hmmm. Seems like mostly ads to me. No. KP
There is alot of interest in this. KB
There are a lot of people in Wisconsin are active in motocross. SH
Yes. Even with all the ads this answers a lot of questions, gives info about equip., riders, etc. I'm not a fan but if it is a popular sport in WI I think for cost we can try it. PW

No no more boating ones. KB
We do seem to have several boating magazines. Do they all circ well? Should we consider getting ride of any? We probably don't need this one. PW

We do get some requests, but not $200 worth. KP

Not necessary. PW

Defer to a vegetarian. Didn't look to havemuch substance. KP
We do receive another vegetarian magazine is his magazine better than that one? SH
Checked with CR (vegetarian)--she thought our current one was better. This one is has lots of articles/advocacy, but not very many reciepes. Expressed an interest in finding a Vegetarian magazine that concentrated on reciepes and info for the "everyday" vegetarian--not so heavy on the issues. Any Suggestions? PW

There were 3 Periodial requests on Ref's July Unanswered Ref Question list. They were:
1. Cast On
2. Journal of Personnel Evaluations in Education
3. Educational Research and Methods
I looked up Cast On, which looks like a knitting magazine which is a pretty popular subject. I added it to our chart--Is there anyway Michael can get us a copy for review?
The other two sound very academic (I didn't look them up). I didn't add them to the chart either. PW
