Oakdale, MN \u2013 06\/21\/2023 –<\/strong> Today, Bibliotheca announced the global release of smartShelf borrow, an integrated intelligent-shelving return and borrow solution for libraries of all sizes. smartShelf borrow combines intelligent return shelving with the power of selfCheck<\/a> to allow instant recirculation of recently returned items. Library users simply place returns on the shelf and technology does the rest – identifying the items, removing them from the user\u2019s account, enabling security, and making them immediately available for borrowing through the integrated selfCheck self-service checkout solution.<\/p>

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to bring the smartShelf borrow solution worldwide\u201d<\/em> says Joe Grillo, Bibliotheca’s CEO. \u201csmartShelf borrow is a great addition to Bibliotheca\u2019s portfolio and allows libraries of all sizes to automate returns, increase circulation, and free staff time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

While Bibliotheca\u2019s smartShelf has been widely used in Australia and Europe for over 10 years, smartShelf borrow introduces a new workflow with the ability to borrow right at the point of return. Perfect for \u201cLucky Day\u201d collections, smartShelf borrow helps reduce wait times for popular items as patrons can borrow these materials as soon as they are returned with no need to wait for reshelving.<\/p>

\u201cCustomers have long been requesting this solution to complement their after-hours circulation capabilities,\u201d <\/em>says Joe. \u201cBy placing smartShelf borrow in a 24\/7 vestibule, libraries can offer not only after hours returns, but also the option to borrow recently returned items after the library has closed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>

smartShelf borrow is the newest addition to Bibliotheca\u2019s portfolio of returns solutions, and is perfectly positioned between the basic book drop and Bibliotheca\u2019s large multi-bin sorter and automatic materials handler, flexAMH.<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
