Patron barcodes appear to be code39. Although I'm not sure if that ends up being important since I believe users would have to be logged in to MyLibrary in order to use this feature and we should now their barcode from Symphony (unless I'm misunderstanding how this feature is intended to work)

I think that's right; the interest in patron barcodes was maybe a simpler prototype for logging in by scanning the barcode (and also typing your PIN, of course)
