Question: I have added several new borrowers to my database. I need to print Library card labels. I want to print them all on the same sheet of labels but I do not see a way to do that (I can either print them one at a time or the whole database). I see when you want to print barcode labels for books, there is an option to print those added that day. Does the same option exist for printing from the borrower's database?

Answer: You can use the same method to display new borrowers and print labels.
