For magazines, we too, print labels at check-in, via Polaris serials. We have 21 branches and have centralized processing/check-in, so before check-in, we put a pre-printed label with branch name on the front cover. We attach a barcode also on the front cover. On check-in, we scan the barcode to create the item record and the labels batch print on a 1x3 label which is placed over the spine. We finish with a long strip of 3” wide tape down the entire spine. No other labeling or marking is done.
