[Evergreen-acq] Baker & Taylor EDI question

[Mary Llewellyn]

Hi Tiffany,

Sorry to be so tardy in replying. We have a library with branches using the
B&T CLS services and EDI and their orders are being transmitted with their
6 character short names. I dimly remember something being said in the
beginning by B&T  about their need for shorter strings, but they must have
resolved it. This is for the Bridgeport Public Library system in
Connecticut.
