No subject

most practical. With the addition of the patron name along with the barcode
one could even cut the list apart and place the information in the book when
retrieved. 

Pull List 1 is easy to read but would be more useful if the columns could be
changed and also printed in different formats without running an additional
report. 

List two is good in that the staff can add or delete columns - but is very
difficult to use when actually pulling books off of the shelves. Unless one
had the ability to print the information in various configurations directly
from the pull list screen it is very difficult to use in retrieving books.

I'm strongly in favour of pull_list2, but only if it includes a one-click 
option to print in table format (without first exporting csv).   Being able 
to add and remove columns is also a huge advantage in pull_list2.
