I am posting the following question per the request of our circulation
manager. Please post responses to his email, listed below:
Parsons Gimbel Library is considering buying a portable bar code
scanner to use for inventory and during those times when the Circulation
system goes down.
Are there any libraries currently using such a machine? If so, was it
a worthy purchase (was it worth the money)? How frequently is it used?
For what uses? Which brand was purchased? Is this a recommended brand?
Is there a better brand? Anything else we should know before deciding
to purchase or not?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
