The Kiosk App is simple to configure and connect to your library. The features permitted are directly connected to the User Settings within the Accessit Library Management App, and these permissions can be updated at any point. Details on configuration are available from within the Accessit Customer Help Portal. Once downloaded and configured, users will be able to scan their patron card (using the tablet camera) or type in their patron number, and scan the book/s they wish to check-out. The timer ensures the screen clears after a certain length of inactivity, to prevent patrons accidentally issuing books to the wrong person. This app works in conjunction with the Accessit Library management system, 9.1.4 and above. Details on the Accessit Library management system can be found at: https://www.accessitlibrary.com/ This app is a superb addition to the Accessit Library and information management software solution. It continues the long tradition of outstanding innovation in library management, and is a reminder of why Accessit Library is seen by many as the leader in the field.
