What You Need to Know About Library Data Transfer
When transferring data from Small Library Organizer Pro to Handy Library Manager, we ensure the integrity of your data by following these steps:
- We check for duplicate barcode values in both the library catalog and the borrower records in Small Library Organizer Pro.
- We check for duplicate names in the borrower records.
- If any conflicts arise, new barcodes are assigned during the transfer process.
- We also transfer loan transactions.
Please note that some loan transactions may not be transferred to the new system due to the following reasons:
- The item was deleted from the main catalog or the title/barcode was modified.
- The borrower was removed from the Borrowers table or the borrower’s name/barcode was changed.
Open main library catalog.
Select View: Copy Print Marker Checked.
You can also define the search.

New bar code numbers are in the BARCODE data field.
Review displayed items. Maybe, you should print new bar code labels.
We also transfer check in/out transactions.
Some transactions could not be moved.
Report of not-moved transactions are sent in the text file (loanerr.txt).
The report is in the following format:
- one transaction per line
- error message, item title, borrower name, loan data, due date, return date, notes
We can provide Not-Moved Loan Transactions report in a spreadsheet file format.
