Hey Riley,

We have metroset voyagers too. They are great, but have you tried extending
the functionality of the voyager (or any scanner)? If you haven't, try
connecting a USB barcode scanner to an android phone, via a USB OTG adapter
cable.

This opens up a world of possibilities (scanning barcodes directly into a
Google spreadsheet, or an ILS API, etc).

Good luck,
