<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve decided to order barcode labels for our items
rather than print them out ourselves. The Brodart form asks some
questions I’m not sure how to answer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Should we use a specific code (such as 2 or 3 or P or T) to
identify a Patron or Item bar code?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Does our circulation software use an “Assigned Library
Number” unique to our library?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is a “Check Digit” required for our circulation
software? If yes, what modulus are check digit (if known)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’d appreciate any guidance/feedback on this. My
impulse is to answer “No” to everything, but my impulses have been
wrong before.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you.<o:p></o:p></p>
