[Publib] Possible scam

[Julie Rinaldi]

Has anyone else received a call from a publisher (Oxford something, I
think), insisting your library has bought "all" of its publications in
the past and wanting to send a new reference set for review?  The woman
told me we had purchased "Reference Library of Black American Men" and
"Reference Library of Black American Women" from this publisher, neither
of which is in our collection.  She insisted we had taken books from the
publisher on review before, which is a practice we don't follow, having
been burned once before.  I had to tell her no several times, after she
questioned our policy.  Just a heads up on a possible scam.
