The Self-Checkout Station enables library patrons to check out library materials without 
the assistance of library staff. The Self-Checkout Station guides patrons smoothly through 
the checkout process with step-by-step instructions to assist in checking out materials 
properly. The process is quick, efficient, and (if available) delivers a printed receipt listing 
the checked out materials and their due dates.

The Self-Checkout Station delivers data, item identification and its checkout status, to the 
Library Management System, which processes the information and updates the library 
records. The processing occurs almost instantaneously, allowing a speedy and efficient 
checkout.

 Note: The Self-Checkout Station is the same as the CheckStation II.

There are three steps to checking out library material:

•

 - Identify yourself with your library card 

•

•

 - Finish and collect your receipt (if available)

The windows on the Self-Checkout Station reflect this order, showing Step 1, Step 2, and 
Step 3, identifying the checkout process.

The following pages details the process a patron uses to check out library material.

 Note: The sample windows shown in this chapter may differ slightly than the windows shown on your 

library’s Self-Checkout Station. Your library may have a different Self-Checkout Station model, 

operating environment, welcome logo, or other windows.
