Help with Labels on Cloth-Covered Books

["Luis R. Ramos" <Flyer13@AOL.COM>]

Hi!

I have a problem with the labels I am using falling of cloth-covered books. This 
happens with both the spine labels and barcodes.

Does anyone has a specific brand and model that does not present this problem?

I remember when I started my employment as Automated Systems Librarian at Delaware 
State U. over ## years ago, the clerks would first type the barcodes or spine 
labels on a special foil label. Then she would apply heat. This transferred the 
lettering and/or numbering directly on the book. But it would need extra work I am 
trying to avoid. I am not even aware if this method is used any more!

Any information will be appreciated.

Take care,

Luis R. Ramos, Librarian
