holdings or multiple copies record

I've searched but cannot find a place to put barcodes for multiple copies of same book. It is probably simple, but, nonetheless, I can't seem to figure it out! All I can do is add a duplicate record. The book detail shows how many copies, but there is no place to add a second barcode???

Thanks!

You'll need to catalog each copy of each record separately in LibraryThing, as LibraryThing/TinyCat do not yet have copies management* (though it's a feature high on our list to consider). I'm sorry for the trouble. At that point, you can place the barcode for each copy in the "Barcode" field for each individual record.

*Though there is a "Copies" field in LT, that field existed long before any lending capabilities or TinyCat were developed on the site.

Thank you! That's what I was doing but it seemed double the work. I'll look for the update. Love LT anyway!
