[CALIBK12] Query: Generic Bar Code in Destiny?

[Joan McCall]

Doug,

In my opinion  (or imho) ear buds are not worth tracking. I bought  
them in bulk from Follett two years ago and haven't even used up half  
of them. They break easily and I'm not inclined to penalize a student  
who gets it caught on a chair or whose kid sister tears them apart. If  
I've got a kid who will read a book while listening to it instead of  
not reading at all, I'm doing my job.
