This repo mainly targets a Digital Library audit, which can be easily automated by walking through digital files and referencing the KLAP database. However, there also exists the need to do a physical library audit, where missing albums are identified. This task will require tedious and manual labor, as each album in the physical library will need to be pulled and recorded one-by-one.
One idea is to purchase a barcode scanner to ease this process. Albums with barcodes would be entered into a database of present physical albums. Those without barcodes would need manual entry. This database would then be compared against KLAP to identify missing albums.
