I am trying to fidn out how to process a complete audit of the whole library without moving all those items from shelves to the desk and back or buying laptops just for this purpose. We are obligated to do this every second or fifth year here in Czech Republic, and it is quite an operation - we have 10 "big" (20-80k) and 100 small (2-6k of volumes) local libraries. As of now, smoothest solution I see in Android tablets/phablets/phones + dedicated readers (we have USB versions, but I am thinking about buying some Bluetooth variations). Any experience or recommendation in this field? Some brands I should avoid? My fast take on this: - Android has no problem with an input using USB barcode scanners (via USB-C or MicroUSB to UBC-A reduction) - Instead of numbers I get !#@$#$&^%$^%# => probably just need to find proper codepage for our Honeywell Eclipse MS5145 LS USB and Android with Czech layout. - Without new api or some plugin in koha itself for using camera and implementing OCR of barcode from picture, using built-in hw is no go. - Anyone has some recommendations for a suitable product (light and durable BT barcode reader)?
