Dear Colleagues
Here at Leeds University Library we are looking at increasing the number
of self-check units in our libraries and are considering moving from our
current supplier (3M) to another so that we would be running 2 systems
in parallel. We may go for an RFID self-check system.
If any of you have experience of running two makes of self-check unit in
your library I would love to hear from you. I would be grateful if you
could answer a few questions below, or even better give me a call to
discuss the issues.
1. Which 2 makes of self-check units do you operate?
2. Which did you have first?
3. Are your units in the same building or on different sites?
4. Which library management system do you use?
5. Were there library management system compatibility issues to address
when adding the second type of unit?
6. Were there any particular user training problems?
7. Any thing else we ought to consider
All contributions welcome
Many thanks
Pippa
