I have taken the Serial checkin card Number and convert it to a barcode to
save time at checkin.
I will be creating a rolodex type file sorted by title, with the checkin
card number (barcode) and bib number on each card.
At checkin, when new magazines come in, staff has only to locate the card,
scan the barcode and click "Check in". No need to
type in bib number, issn or title. Scanning takes you right to the Checkin
Card.
I did it off a "Create List" exported into Excel and then into Access. You
can do it by using mail merge off Excel as well.
I took the concept from the NOBLE Consortium.
Just thought I would share.
