[Koha] Unique Barcodes across branches

Looking more for confirmation here.... Multiple "independent" branches still require unique barcodes for each item, correct? I was under the incorrect assumption that there would be behind-the-scenes magic that would tie barcodes to their home library/location and so there could be the same barcode in use at multiple branches, each for a different item. As in: Library 400 Book A, barcode 2001 Library 500 Book B, barcode 2001 I was looking forward to having one install with a shared catalog, patron database and other "one stop management" functions. -- Regards, Jeramey Valley Network Manager, Bullock Creek Schools valleyj@bcreek.org
