 **Southern:** We have discovered 4 patrons so far who requested we cancel a particular magazine for them.  We have cancelled the magazine in WebReads and cancelled it repeatedly in CMLS, but it comes back after the next extract.  For 3 of the patrons the mags are audio mags that are also their trigger magazine.  The 4th patron has a braille mag that won’t go away.  Has anyone else had this problem?  (I have emailed Mike Martys a couple times about this, but have not heard anything back.)\\ **Southern:** We have discovered 4 patrons so far who requested we cancel a particular magazine for them.  We have cancelled the magazine in WebReads and cancelled it repeatedly in CMLS, but it comes back after the next extract.  For 3 of the patrons the mags are audio mags that are also their trigger magazine.  The 4th patron has a braille mag that won’t go away.  Has anyone else had this problem?  (I have emailed Mike Martys a couple times about this, but have not heard anything back.)\\
