I second the suggestion of OPALS. It’s also reasonably priced and the tech help is very responsive. It’s also pretty easy to learn.

It will printout labels for the barcode, card pocket,card (if you're using the latter two), tell you when an item is overdue, creates reports etc. Maxine Wolfson - Rosen Library Temple Emanu-El 99 Taft Street Providence, RI 02906 401-331-1616 Ext 18 www.teprov.org<http://www.teprov.org/> On Fri, Sep 20, 2019 at 2:38 AM Jacqueline Benefraim via Hasafran <hasafran@lists.osu.edu<mailto:hasafran@lists.osu.edu>> wrote: Shalom, I posted this in the summer, but I got a limited response. I've volunteered to help get my synagogue's library in order. There are two parts to the collections. The adult reference materials are held in the chapel and will be checked out on an honor system; the children's library is in a room that is being converted into an official library. Of course my synagogue will be joining AJL. Another shul member who already works in a public school will be in charge of children's collection. She wanted to know what program works best for a collection of about 1,000 title. We want to be able to check out books using a scanner, so I'd also appreciate a suggestion as to what scanner you'd recommend.
