I solved this problem by taking a photograph of my library card. To check out a book, I load the picture and hold it up to the scanner.

I added an image of my barcode to a location based reminder, so it pops up in a notification when I go to my local library.

I used this pro-tip today and it worked great. Thanks for the idea.

That's amazing. Truly. I'm assuming you're on iPhone. Anyone know if there is a way to do this in Android?

If you use Google Keep for the note, it's easy to do

How do you do that, on iOS?

Check the official Shortcuts app.

Never knew that existed, or whether I needed it. Looks very interesting, thanks.

This is a brilliant and simple solution. If it's a static barcode, a photo is all that is needed.

There's little advantage to having it in the wallet.

I store all my IDs in a Photo Album on my phone.
