[aisle] Print your own bar code labels?

[Karen Doyle]

I do. I use Follett Destiny and just print them to Avery  #5160 labels.
It's a little complicated getting things lined up and making sure your
printer is cooperating.  Other than that, it's pretty straightforward.  I
print them as I get books in (I do try to get most of my books processed by
vendors) and catalogued.  It works pretty well and I can have the title and
other info printed on the bar code itself.  Let me know if you have any
specific questions.  Karen
