As of Monday, December 15, Baker & Taylor will close their Content Cafe catalog enrichment service, which may leave libraries without cover images and other essential elements for their catalogs.
In response to this urgent need for images, Syndetics is offering all Content Café subscribers free access to cover images through January 31, 2026, to ensure your catalog images remain undisrupted and to maintain the look and feel that your patrons expect.
To request this complimentary cover image service, please reach out to us via the form below. We will then give you instant access to the Syndetics cover image service.

We are extending the following transition plan to Content Cafe subscribers:
- We will turn on access to Syndetics for the remainder of your existing contract term for no fee
- Syndetics will provide the elements you currently receive
- Syndetics will deliver a simple turnkey solution that does not disrupt the patron experience
- Syndetics will offer a consistent pricing structure on a new contract.
