Vector 900 Self Check Station

The Patron Self Check station is basically a computer with a
touch screen and a built-in RFID reader, plus special software
for personal identification, book and other media handling and
circulation. After identifying the patron with a library ID card, a
barcode card, or his personal ID number (PIN), the patron is
asked to choose the next action (check-out of one or several
books). After choosing check-out (issue), the patron puts the
books on sensor area of RFID reader and the display will show
the book title and its ID number (other optional information can
be shown if desired) which have been checked out.

The patron then confirms that he has finished the check-out
process and a receipt is printed, showing which books have
been borrowed and the due date. The RFID tag in the book is
EAS off as a result no alarm will go off at EAS gates.

It is also possible to use the station for Check-In (return) of
books. Chooses return and then puts one book or a stack of
books onto the reader. Patron will receive a receipt. If the
books were to be taken through the gate now, an alarm would
sound.

One important point for library productivity is that the whole
process is significantly less time consuming than with barcode
and Electro-magnetic system; therefore long lines are avoided
and fewer stations are needed for the same process.
