The instructions below will step you through adding notes to a resource’s barcode notes while in Circulation. This feature provides a ‘Return Warning’, e.g., this note will appear when the barcode is scanned in Returns. It can be used to note if a book has a CD attached or whether the resource has been damaged by the last borrower.

Note: This task can only performed whilst the resource is still on loan.

Adding notes

1. Double-click on the LibCode Suite icon.
2. Click on Circulation.

5. Right, click on the item.
6. Click on Barcode Details.
