Robert,
Enabling the <itemBarcodeFallbackSearch> system preference allows you to
search for a document if the text you entered in the barcode field is
not found.
So you can consider the barcode field as a search box.

Is there a simple way to checkout books without a barcode?
I'm currently in the process of inventorying and barcoding all our
materials, but in the meantime, it would be super useful to be able to
checkout materials by looking them up by name/author/etc. So far I
have not been able to find a way to do this. There's no check out to
patron option after searching the catalog, and the checkout process
only allows for barcodes as the entry method.
Currently I have the catalog search open in one tab and the checkout
in the other and copy and paste from one to the other to check items out.
Hoping someone can offer me a better solution.
Thanks,
Robert
