Hi David We've used (and still use) the full range of scanners from very cheap to very expensive. My experience is you get what you pay for. We use expensive hands-free ones where the going is tough (more than a thousand issues per day), and cheap hand-held ones for occasional light use. We get good value from both.

Hello

I apologise if this has been asked a 100 times before, but as a new Koha user I'm wondering if there is a preference / recommended serial scanner to use?

I'm planning on installing Koha in 2 or 3 primary schools in which we have already installled & manage their Linux based network (workstation are win9x - server is Suse Linux).

Any pointers about scanners are most appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Dave Williams.
