[CASL-L] Barcodes

[Hsiang, Sara]

I purchased some barcodes to label Chromebooks with ranges 0000-4999 from
Demco in the fall. Not even to scan necessarily but just for labeling since
they are stronger than address labels. The Demco people were great
at helping me set them up over the phone.
(The motivation was that Chromebooks were returned to any haphazard school
in our decent-sized district at the end of the summer.)
Here's a pic.
