Here are some steps you can follow to remove barcode stickers from books:
Heat the sticker: Use a hair dryer or a heat gun on low heat to warm up the sticker for a few minutes. The heat can help to loosen the adhesive and make it easier to remove.
Scrape with a credit card: Use the edge of a plastic credit card or similar item to gently scrape the sticker off the book cover. Move the card in a back-and-forth motion, being careful not to damage the book cover.
Use a rubber eraser: Rub the sticker with the eraser side of a pencil eraser. The eraser can help to remove the adhesive residue and any remaining bits of the sticker.
Clean with rubbing alcohol: Dampen a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol and use it to clean any remaining adhesive residue from the book cover. Make sure to test the alcohol on a small, inconspicuous area of the book first to make sure it does not damage the cover.
Note: The specific method that works best for removing a barcode sticker may depend on the type of adhesive used, the surface of the book cover, and other factors. Be gentle and patient when removing the sticker, as forcing it off can cause damage to the book cover.
