  • In this example, the library name is Widener Library and WID-LC is the location name.  The prefix we want to add to the label is WID-LC.

  • Use a semicolon to split your prefix between lines.  For example, Widener Library+WID-LC Mid East=WID-LC;Mid East will print WID-LC and Mid East on separate lines.  Consult the SpineOMatic documentation for more information on this, and other configuration options.
