Custom Solutions

Used by: University of Chicago

Some libraries make and use custom solutions. For example, the University of Chicago has created a Spine Labeling App (one of many at their organization) which they use to print spine labels. Their app is designed to print individual call number labels via a Zebra thermal printer. Please see the powerpoint presentation below for further information.

For a demo of UChicago's custom solution, see 2023-02-14 FOLIO Implementers Meeting Notes. (Approximately 35:50-42:20 on the recording.)
