trying to get our reports up and running and deal with past circ issues. I will
probably be sending a “few” messages in the next day or so. This

system admin since I set up things to go live, itembarcodelength and
patronbarcodelength. I have looked in the manual and wasn’t able to
locate anything too much on these. My main question is how do we input the requested
information? Do we simply put a number in each box such as 10 and 9 or do we
put ten and nine nondescript numbers such as 9999999999 and 999999999 or
letters XXXXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXXX?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
