Departments and schools are responsible for stocking their own logo imprint items. Northwestern's preferred promotional products vendors may be able to assist you with your needs of logo imprint items:
OPD also informed Northwestern of current widespread unavailability of recycled paper due to a recent fire at a paper mill that produces recycled paper products. Several ODP recycled paper vendors have issued “Force Majeure” notices, advising that they are working on a solution, but cannot provide any stock at this time. For your units copy paper needs, OPD has plenty of the Boise X9 paper #196517 in stock for $41.71 for a case of 10 reams.
