[LM_NET] TEch: Portable sccanners & Destiny

[Pam Gelbmann <Pam.gelbmann@COMCAST.NET>]

Hi all you experts!

Any of you have a recommendation for a portable scanner that will work with 
Follett? Our PHD is so old I can no longer attach it to our computer without a 
series of adapters. I am looking for something that will do inventory and remote 
circulation. Price is also a factor, so if any has good experience with a bargain 
priced scanner I would love to know. 

Second question: those of you that have switched over to Destiny, is there a 
separate program for textbook circulation or a way to separate out textbooks from 
the library collection? Currently our leveled readers are part of our library 
collection catalog and it does skew the statistics. I would like to figure a way to 
easily pull them out for collection mapping and collection age data.
