Subject:  End processing question - Bib info near barcode?

Dear all, 

I have an end processing question. Does anyone still write information such
as authors, titles and/or the call number on the page where you put your
barcode on?  I was told that it has been a standard practice but I also
noticed that some libraries have already abandoned it since the catalog
went online.  What is the reason behind the practice and what are the
pros/cons in both practice?

Thank you very much.
Ellyses
