This is just a brief note to tell you how much
I appreciate the fine work that Jim Lawrence does in Custom
Publishing. He is cheerful, makes helpful suggestions, is
tolerant of over-busy professors who sometimes are late getting
work to him, and, overall, he is a pleasure to work with.
He is a credit to Cornell and to the Campus Store. Jim
has been extremely understanding, even when he could have
given me a loud and clear bureaucratic "No!" with complete
justification.
Sincerely,
Richard Baer Professor, Dept. of Natural Resources
I am writing to say what a terrific job Jim
Lawrence and his staff at Custom Publishing are doing. Preparing
my course packet this year was a real pleasure (BioES 278,for
400+ students). Jim not only was extremely accomodating of
my schedule, he was unfailingly pleasant, and very helpful.
I am recommending Custom Publishing to all of my colleagues,
and I certainly intend to use Jim's services each semester
that I teach.
With best regards,
Sara Via Associate Professor of Ecology and Systematics
I am a faculty member in the psychology department and have
now used the Cornell Custom Publishing service for three
years in a row. This note is to let you know what a spectacularly
good job Jim Lawrence does in the quality, the speed, and
the friendliness of the service. Even when I have been quite
late with my class packet order, Jim has always managed to
get the packets on the shelves before the first class--even
when he had to tell me that he would "try to get
them there by the end of the first week of classes." Moreover, he has never
made a mistake, despite the complexity of some of my packets ("This one should
be two-sided, that one one-sided, and a blank sheet of another color between
these 3 articles, etc."). And finally, he manages to be warm and friendly even
in the most frenzied week before classes begin. We should wish that the rest
of Cornell operated with the efficiency of Jim Lawrence's shop!

Jim, I just wanted to thank you again. You were amazing this morning!! By
the way, when I told the CAU staff what you had done, their comment was.....you
guys couldn't be nicer or more efficient..in other words, they weren't surprised
at the terrific service in your place. Now I know for myself what they were
talking about.
Ralph Janis Director of Cornell's Adult University
THANKS SO VERY MUCH for your help with getting my packet
together in such a timely manner, especially despite my coming
to you so late with my stuff!
Christina Rivers Department

Thanks so much for getting this done so quickly. I've always
appreciated the wonderful work you do putting my mess of
papers (Always handed in late!) together.
Kristi Lockhart

Jim, thank you for the prompt attention. Above and beyond
the call. My first discussion section was today, and a good
number of the students already had the packets.
Peter Holquist Associate

Dear Jim, Thanks for the great job that you did on the reader

Dear Jim, Thanks for doing such a nice job
on the copy of Frances Henry's book, Victims and Neighbors.
It's much better than what I had in the past. I appreciate
your help, and look forward to working with you in the future.
