Update on Highsmith
September 18, 2008 08:23 AM | NewsMichael Scott, Assistant Director
I have an update to my SELCO Librarian post on September 12, 2008 about the closing of Highsmith. This information had been reported in both The Capital Times (Madison, WI) and on the American Libraries Direct newsletter. It turns out that Highsmith is closing its Fort Atkinson, WI, facility and relocating to Janesville, WI as it was purchased by Lab Safety Supply, which is based in Janesville. A correction has been issued by The Capital Times. Additionally, American Libraries Direct this week noted the correction and has provided links to an article in the Watertown Daily Times about the relocation and a press release from Highsmith issued to clarify the issue. Having relied on information from reputable sources, I apologize for any concern or confusion this may have caused for Highsmith customers.
