Classroom Library

Classroom library plugin to catalog books and create a check in/out system for students.

Quick entry of publications: Using the built-in barcode lookup, you can use a scanner or enter a barcode to pull book details from OpenLibrary.org automatically – no API keys needed!

Visual directory: Use a shortcode to place your library listing on any page you’d like!

1. Upload the classroom-library plugin to your site and activate it!
2. Add new publications manually or by looking them up using the built-in barcode search (uses OpenLibrary.org).
3. Add the [bookshelf] shortode to any page you’d like the library to appear.
   • Add “search” attribute (“yes”/”no”) to show/hide search bar. Default: “yes”
   • Add “cols” attribute to determine number of columns, or books per shelf row. Default: 6
4. Check available copies out and check borrowed books back in from individual publication pages.
