[LM_NET] TARGET: External Keypad for Student Library Numbers

[Sandra Parks <sparks@HARRISONBURG.K12.VA.US>]

Does anyone use a keypad for students to enter their own barcode numbers?

We need students to use their student id number as their barcode number. We
don't want to make them carry something since they have already memorized
this number. However, since  their student Id is also their network password
they shouldn't share it by saying it aloud and we can't have printed lists
available for them.

If you use one, please let us know what circulation system you use, and if
your keypad requires a separate program to make it work.

Thanks!
