Library cards
Libraries throughout the UK use PCS for the very best quality barcoded library cards. As experts in barcode symbology, we produce library cards which read reliably throughout the life cycle of the card.
Every single library card is camera checked both for print quality and for barcode readability as part of the PCS quality assurance process. In addition, each barcode batch is QC checked using calibrated barcode verification systems which qualify the readability grading. For added peace of mind automatic anti-duplication systems ensure that duplicate library cards cannot be created.
Barcoded cards can be provided with either standard eye-readable characters or special characters for partially-sighted people.
To meet environmental policy directives, we are urging libraries to choose the more eco alternative to the standard library card, which is made with biodegradable materials and uses waterless print processes in its production.
