[ISLMA-Share] Library Clerk Training

[Christine Wilson]

Another option is to print the circulation command barcodes:

Reports; Patron Reports; Barcode Labels; check Use at Circulation Desk;
check Include Circulation Command Barcodes

Print and scan the Reset code at the bottom of the page.
I insert the reset code into a storybook character's 'ID' so we 'scan Miss
Lotty' or similar.


​
Good luck!
