Another possibility might be to run a report of biblios/biblionumbers without items attached:
SELECT biblio.biblionumber, biblio.title FROM biblio WHERE biblionumber NOT IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items) In our case I have to take out the e-books that have links, not barcodes, but it's still good for tracking down books with problems I need to check on.

I pulled up "tools" then logs, under modules i selected "catalog" (with "all" actions selected) and then ran the report for the suspected date range.... what I found was some modifications of approx 70 items.... they all had an "info" section something like : Catalog Modify Item 12718 item $VAR1 = { 'biblioitemnumber' => '3514', 'holdingbranch' => 'PINE', 'reserves' => undef, 'itemnotes' => undef, 'uri' => undef, 'itype' => 'BK', 'price' => '17.51', 'renewals' => undef, 'stocknumber' => undef, 'dateaccessioned' => '2016-09-26', 'itemcallnumber' => 'KIB', 'itemnotes_nonpublic' => undef, 'cn_sort' => 'KIB', 'materials' => undef, 'location' => 'FIC', 'biblionumber' => '3514', 'ccode' => 'FIC', 'copynumber' => '3', 'more_subfields_xml' => undef, 'stack' => undef, 'datelastseen' => '2016-09-26', 'booksellerid' => undef, 'withdrawn_on' => undef, 'items.cn_sort' => 'KIB', 'itemlost_on' => undef, 'notforloan' => '0', 'replacementprice' => undef, 'homebranch' => 'PINE', 'onloan' => undef, 'issues' => undef, 'itemlost' => '0', 'damaged' => '0', 'restricted' => undef, 'paidfor' => undef, 'cn_source' => 'ddc', 'barcode' => '75082', 'enumchron' => undef, 'permanent_location' => 'FIC', 'itemnumber' => '12718', 'datelastborrowed' => undef, 'coded_location_qualifier' => undef, 'withdrawn' => '0', 'replacementpricedate' => '2016-09-26' }; I haven't had a chance to check every one of the barcodes...but I'm guessing that these may be my "missing" items....if so...that makes life much easier...at least I know what titles / barcodes are "missing" ...then I just need to fix them.
