Hello,

 

My institution is planning a collections move in the near future. In preparation for it, we’ll be creating barcodes for each item and we plan to use TMS’s barcode plug-in. I’ve not participated in this kind of project, so I’d be interested in talking with people who have done the TMS side of this before. What’s involved? What pitfalls should I try to avoid? I’m interested in a from-the-beginning kind of explanation. If you’ve been involved in a barcoding project before, might you be able to spare 20 minutes or so for me to pick your brain?

 

Many thanks,

Jennifer
