Quick Add:
- barcode choices: automatic (zero-padded, >= 7 digits), scan a pre-printed
sticker per item, or none for now; bulk 'give barcodes to items without one';
reserve a block of numbers and print the sheet ahead of time (link opens
Koha's range printer prefilled)
- default shelf saved on the server (shared by every device)
- item types follow Koha; CSP allows cover redirects; aria attrs fixed
Koha bootstrap:
- default lending rule (3 weeks, 25 items, 3 renewals, no fines) - a fresh
Koha refuses every checkout without one
- automatic library-card numbers (start at 1000001), fines off
- Koha's own auto-barcode off (one numbering scheme)
- patron card template (Avery 5371) and layout with a scannable barcode
- LIBRARY_CODE, SHELVES and ITEM_TYPES honoured at first install
Why 7 digits: decoded printed sheets - 7-digit Code 39 read back 40/40, 6-digit
all-numeric symbols were reinterpreted as Code 32 for ~1 in 10 values.
