Question:
I have added several new borrowers to my database. I need to print Library card labels.

Answer:
We do not recommend ordering cards and printing from our software. It would be more cost-effective to purchase ready-to-use cards from a printing company, which typically include barcodes and a designated space for entering the member's name. When we encountered a similar question, I suggested checking with local printing shops. The library was able to find high-quality cards that were reasonably priced.

Question: How do I print barcodes for students?

Answer: Handy Library Manager offers a variety of pre-designed templates for creating member ID cards. Simply purchase the labels from your local office supply store or online, and you can start printing your cards. If you prefer not to use the predefined templates, you can easily create your own ID card design. This topic includes instructions and images that guide you in designing and printing library cards with barcodes.

For long-lasting plastic cards, we recommend that you have them pre-printed by a professional printing company. These cards should include space for writing the name of the library user.
