A brief description of the program:
We do not have an official policy. However, local products and businesses are definitely considered in our buying decisions. For instance, all of our copy paper, and much of our furniture has been purchased from Hurst Office Supplies and Furniture. The majority of our printers are Lexmark. The majority of our large copiers come from Bluegrass Office Systems, a locally owned company.
