The Live Oak Public Libraries in Savannah, Ga., have integrated automated materials handling from 3M RFID Solutions, and are considering expanding the system to its more than 18 locations.
3M’s Intelligent Return and Sorter System enable library patrons to instantly check their items in, after which the system sorts the items into bins, helping speed their return to the stacks.
The Live Oak locations use a three-bin unit: one for holds, one for items in need of inspection, such as digital media, and one for materials that can go straight back to the shelves.
Live Oak Public Libraries combine this AMH system with 3M SelfCheck Systems and 3M Detection Systems, which further enhances workflow by enabling self-service and securing collections.
