Barcode Search

If you Search the Catalogue for a single barcode the system brings you to the biblio record and then lists all items, not just the one you want.  It is much more efficient to use Item Search, then search by barcode.





This brings you straight to the barcode you want - very useful where you have multiple items for a popular title.
