[Web4lib] QR Codes

[Memo Cordova]

Antoinette,

I used QR codes in my library but am now starting to keep track of scanned
codes using Bit.ly, both to shorten URLs and to generate and keep traffic
statistics of the codes I have used. I also created a libguide on QR codes
for anyone interested in knowing more about them:
