Sentry Technology installs self-serve library checkout
September 6, 2005
RONKONKOMA, N.Y. — Sentry Technology Corp. announced in a news release the successful installation of eight QuickCheck patron self-service kiosks at the Omaha Public Library. The library expects to increase circulation using QuickCheck by as much as 50 percent.
QuickCheck operates in a similar fashion to a bank ATM. Patrons gain access to the library's circulation software via a user card and touchscreen monitor. A barcode or RFID chip is read, security functions performed and a receipt is printed to tell the patron what items have been borrowed and when they are due to be returned. Once the process is complete, the patron exits the library through the security system without any intervention from library staff. The entire process is fast and frees library staff from the circulation desk to perform higher-level tasks. The system includes statistical usage report software as well as remote diagnostic control and management over a local network and via the Internet.
