4.133Mt SelfCheckt System Model 5210

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 the bar code and then accesses the library circulation system. If he or she is an approved patron, screen graphics appear that guide the patron through the check-out process. The system verifies that the item can be circulated, checks the item out, desensitizes the 3Mt Tattle-TapetSecurity 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 for 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.
