c. How to Check-In
- Staff will still be doing Check-Ins but through the SHELVING MODULE
- For Future applications, the RFID system does have the ability for patrons to check in their own items
Here’s how the RFID works in the Check-Out Process:
The system captures the electronic signature of the item instantaneously. Once the transaction is approved by the Library’s system, the “check-out” process is completed.
During the process, the RFID tag is “disarmed” and could be taken out through the security gates without alarm.
