Re-barcode these, because the original barcode might get lost in the rebinding process
affix the new barcode to the clear plastic sheets JEevan saves, and tape that to a slip that has the call number on it
Erase Title when you type that in, but not the other fields such as author
We're leaving the call number field blank when we have a Dewey number because books are going to be reclassed eventually anyway.
Instructions field: Retain and Reinforce for most issues with sewn structures, like loose hinges and damaged flapping spines.
