To the many kind folks who responded to my query about barcodes. Many, many thanks.

Two of you recommended the article by William Albert Manning "Automated Systems in Museums: the Use of Bar Code Technology in Collections Management" in Museum Management and Curatorship, Vol. 18, No.1, 1999:9-18. I recommend it to anyone interested in barcoding issues.

Sincerely,
