Yellow Record Book Stickers
• When going on to V.6, at the same time we purchased a book printer but this was shortly discontinued as it was too problematic
• Staff resorted to hand writing details in to new/replacement yellow books
• Labels were created when on v.7 to make it easier for completing yellow books
