Self Service

Library Automation starts with Self Service for its patrons and forms an integral part of customer service delivery in today’s busy library environments. Modern and easy-to-use self-service kiosks from Nexbib increase your Libraries circulation levels and frees up valuable time for the library staff.

Powered by our modern, intuitive graphical user interface, Nexbib’s kiosks offer industry leading levels of functionality and configuration choice. We are passionate about the need to truly integrate automation with your individual Library needs, and are fully committed to help you to create the best possible user experience for your patrons. Our approach allows you to do so much more than the “traditional” check in and check out of library materials.

We can offer you complete freedom of choice for kiosk colour, screen size and orientation, Library or User “themes”, integrations, technology (RFID – HF or UHF, EM, Barcode), payment, patron log on/ access.

Freestanding

Our kiosks are available as free-standing floor mounted units, with powered height adjustability as an option. Delivering maximum choice, they only occupy a small footprint and are compliant with all DDA standards.

Desktop

Our kiosks are also available as table mounted or fully integrated into your furniture. Additionally, we can supply custom furniture to meet the needs of your Library.

Self Service Return Bin

Return bins, with intelligent validation using the RFID tag in the library item, guide the patron to safely return selected items into a secure bin. On hold items, Inter Library loans, those from other branches, or other specially flagged items, can then quickly be identified and retrieved by staff and made ready for the next patron.

The Nexbib self-service Return Bin is also available without RFID validation, i.e. for libraries only using barcodes.
