Barcode Orders
Introduction
Labels are produced by Watson Label Products. You can see samples at the Watson 
internet site. Prices for Watson products are significantly lower through Sirsidynix rather then being ordered from Watson directly. MSC Admin will handle the orders with Watson thru the SirsiDynix Client Care website. Watson will print and ship the barcodes directly to your library along with an invoice for payment. Cost is $29.00 per thousand and with a minimum order of 4,000. Orders must be in increments of 1,000. This applies to large purchasers as well as small.
Montana Shared Catalog orders can be aggregated but may take longer while waiting for other libraries to join in the order. If your library purchases pre-bar coded items (books, tapes, etc.) please contact MSC Admin so that we can give you information vital to avoiding duplicate numbers.
Color labels are available for no extra charge. You can have a colored stripe, or your 'human readable' bar code number, or your library's name printed in color. You'll need to specify the color and the text you want in color.
Place your order by emailing us at msc@mt.gov indicating quantity, item, patron or both, text (institution name) to appear on the barcode and whether they should be on 8 1/2x11 or 11x17 sheet format or on a roll.
