When the control number and/or call number wells display a number other than the system-supplied number (as a result of overlaying, etc.), the Sirsi default number can be obtained by deleting the “-x001” from the system-supplied number in the barcode well. When even that has been supplanted by another barcode, a Sirsi default number may be obtained by creating a dummy additional copy of the sound recording, using its record number (by deleting the “-x001” from the system-supplied barcode), and then deleting the dummy copy.
