Guidance for Book Bank Scheme
by rucha kamat 10 Jul '13

10 Jul '13

Dear Librarian, We are successfully running book bank scheme in our engineering college. It is always advisable to keep separate register as Book Bank Accession Register and for which numbering should be different should start from number 1. and no any connection with regular register. While feeding in software, you can define 2 series as one for "book Bank' and second one for 'regular/Text,Reference books'. This facility is surely available in any software.(The number of titles will also increase while calculating) All the best for book bank scheme and for any assistance you can directly contact.
