I set up my classroom library by grouping my books into genre-specific crates. I then scan each bar code into a free app that stores them like a library. That way, I can always keep track of who has borrowed which book title.

Hello Brandi,
I was just curious to know which app you used to store your library. I really think its a neat idea.

I’m not sure which app Jared uses, but Book Crawler (in the App Store) is a great app for scanning and cataloguing books. Hope that helps!

I would also like to know that app and if there is a special scanner that you need to get.

I use classroom organizer by book source. You use your phone to scan the books. You can also check out the books to your students.
