Textbook Defaults


These preferences configure some of the default settings applied to new textbooks when they're added to your collection.

Barcode Settings

Next Barcode

New copies are assigned the next available barcode number provided here, unless you assign a barcode to the new copy manually. You should configure this setting when you initially set up Textbook Tracker so that new copies are assigned barcode numbers that coincide with your numbering strategy.

Policy

Default Policy

Select the default item policy to use for new textbooks. If an operator-created item policy is applied and later removed, this preference will revert back to Textbook.
