Referring URLS

An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely identifies a computer to an IP network. System administrators or network

If you only have 1 or 2 computers that will be using our product, we only need the IPs of those machines.

If you have RANGES of IPs, please clarify the range with a dash. For example: 66.213.70.0 – 66.213.70.255 (for a total of 256 IP addresses)

If your institution has a firewall, we must also have the IP of the firewall so that the computers on your networkwill be able to access our site.

To submit your IP addresses, please fill out the information requested below. For an example, refer to the "Sample" tab.

designers assign IP addresses to workstations.

An IP address is a number represented as 4 fields, each representing numbers in the range 0 to 255

From outside the library, when patrons visit the www.learningexpresslibrary.com site directly (not through the library's URL), the only way they can access LearningExpress Library is with codabars (Library Card Numbers). Our platform utilizes the National Codabar System; the library card can be 14 alphanumeric characters or less with characters 1-5 representing the library's unique code.

Key Codabar Points:We must know the total number of characters including the codabar (total string). For example, a 12345 codabar with 9 additional characters would be a 14-character string (14-character library card number). This is different from a 12345 Codabar with 7 additional characters, which would be a 12-character string (12-character library card number).

The minimum and maximums are as follows: Common alphanumeric characters : Min: 2 Max: 5 String: Min: 3 Max:14

To submit your Codabars, please fill out the information requested below. For an example, refer to the "Sample" tab.
