Description/Characteristics
The system emulates the same procedures to process
materials that librarians use. When a patron places a
library card in the system, a scanner is activated that
reads t he bar code and then accesses t he library
circulation system. If he or she i s an approved patron,
screen graphics appear that guide the patron through
the check-out process. The system verifies t hat the
item can be circulated, checks the item out,
desensitizes the 3Mt Tattle-Tapet Security Strip and
prints out a date due slip — all in a matter of seconds.
If patrons are not approved borrowers or there is some
other problem or information to convey — such as
fines owed or materials on hold f or them — the screen
simply spells out the appropriate message or asks
them to go to the front desk.
The 3M selfcheck system is compatible with many
automated circulation systems.
The system also features menus which allow you to
make changes in a few minutes. You can choose from
a variety of different instructional messages and even
add Personal Identification Numbers (PINs) to further
improve security.
