That does sound like a good workable solution, thanks. You could also probably put the students photo with it to make it even easier. Thanks muchly for your thoughts<br><br>Jon <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 17, 2011 at 11:06 AM, chad <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:chad@pennmanor.net">chad@pennmanor.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
I work for a school district and I think we solved this problem a different way.<br>
<br>
I imported all of the student homerooms as attributes into koha. As you noticed that doesn't help with searching. However I created a report that generates a pdf with scannable barcodes based on the room attribute.<br>
<br>
This allows the librarian to print a barcode sheet per classroom. When the kids come in for that class she can do a completely keyboard-less checkout by utilizing the patron barcode sheets.<br>
<br>
If this is something you would be interested in I can probably send you an example pdf and the source.<br>
<br>

I tried adding a patron attribute type for the grade level, but that did not seem to allow me to search this way. I have my own copy of Koha setup on a VM presently, so I have easy access to all the files.<br>
