Hi Bill,

Are you using the "barcode range" option or printing labels from existing items? If you are printing barcode ranges, I don't think you can put anything else on the labels with Koha right now (see bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12316). If you use any layout with bibliographic data and the items don't exist yet, it will return an error or an empty file.

There is no good workaround that I know of for that other than using a stamp like Heather says in her comment or having the library name preprinted on the barcode.

If you want, you can do it the other way around: create your items first, and then print the barcode labels.

Regards,

Caroline

P.S.: Koha's name is written Koha, not KOHA as it is not an acronym :)

Thank you Marie-Luce!

I did what you said, both ways but KOHA does not like it. It outputs a PDF
that is 0 kb. If I remove the branchcode and change it to "only the barcode
is printed' it generates the labels without issue. I also put the branch
name in 'xxxx', barcode but it does not like that either. I am not sure
what I am doing wrong.


Thank you,
Bill Kingsley

Hi Bill,
You can create a new card layout (Cataloguing > Label creator > New :
Layout), set the layout type = "Bibliographic data precedes barcode" and
add "homebranch" to the data fields.
If your library name is different from your system (Administration >
Libraries > Library name), add free text between single quotes to the data
fields (e.g. 'Centrale Library' ).
You will then only need to select this layout when printing your labels.

Hello,
It's been a long time since I have posted a question. We are getting ready
to print some barcodes for new books. The barcodes that were printed a long
time ago have the name of the school with the barcode under it on the
barcode label. I can only print the barcode on the labels so *How do I set
it up to print the name of the library with the barcode under it?*

Thank you,
Bill Kingsley
