We do the same thing you do. The patrons do complain occasionally, but you've 
got to put it somewhere, and if you keep changing where you put it, it slows 
down circ trying to find it. Also, if you use a self-checkout it needs to be in 
a consistent place.

Sorry I couldn't give you a magic solution!

Subject: [ctls-l] barcode on audio items

At this time we attach the barcode label on the back of an audio item (DVD, 
audio CD, music CD, etc.)  I have patrons suggest that we not do so because it 
blocks some of the description info.

My question is - how do other libraries, which use barcodes, label audio items?

Thanks,
