Musical instruments, barcoded and cataloged

Stack of two clarinets in cases, in front of two trumpets in cases. In each stack, the top case's lid is open to show the musical instrument inside of it

Musical instruments are being sent home with students at Santa Rosa Charter School for the Arts, just as quickly as I can barcode and catalog them. I am checking these instruments out to students, the same way that they would have a library book checked-out before they removed it from the library.

As the Instructional Materials Technician at SRCSA, I utilize an automated library-and-resource catalog to barcode and inventory textbooks. (I call myself a “curriculum librarian.”) As you can see from this post, the practice applies toward musical instruments as well. Shown are a couple of clarinets and a couple of trumpets that are destined to go home with students.
