Connie,
I have a Brother P-touch Pro DX. I love it. I was so excited at the
beginning of the year my students told me they were afraid I was going
to label all of them STUDENT in different fonts and label all the books
BOOK with different clip art. They probably weren't far off ;-).

I have used various Brother systems for several years...presently I have
the PT2600. It might be over kill, unless you want a system that can
print from your computer too. I really like this model, the labels look
great. I have them in several sizes. Just be prepared for a shock when
you see the cost of the tape; but I don't think any printing systems
have cheap tape.
Good luck.

I have the P-touch PRO dx and love it. there is so much one can do with
it. It is a little more expensive but because it is so versatile, but I
think it is worth the price.

You need one that can do at least three lines of text. I use mine for
staff
books and videos and for labelling the shelves. I can't remember the
model
number, but it does three lines. I love it.

Dear Connie,
My library has a Brother labeling system and we love lit!. It is very
versatile. We use it to label shelves. The clear tape is great. my
assistant read the direction book and the system is capable of doing so
much. I recommend it completely.

I bought the PT-1900 model because it will do a variety of
sized tapes and 4 lines of print. I use it to label shelves
and
book spines, file folders, etc. It was about $80.00 and runs
on batteries so it is portable. I run between 3 schools and
take it with me. If you are in one location, the one that
connects to your computer is great because it can run bar
code labels.

Hello! I bought for the library a Brother P-Touch
1900/1910. I use the 3/4" tape size for spine labels
or shelf labels (if no computer is available). and I
use font size 42. Hope this helps you. It is great,
however, the labels do tend to peel off a wood shelf -
maybe put tape over it.
