 Hi, this is a short video on how to use one of our five self-service machines in the library. You can use one of those self-service machines to renew, loan or return an item, including books and DVDs. This is a short video on how to borrow an item. First of all, you need to click on the borrow button from the self-service desk. Then tap your ID card on the scanner. Wait for your account to be checked. If you have any overdue books or fines over £10, you will not be able to loan out any items from the library. You'll need to go to the self-service desk. Usually on every book you'll be able to locate the barcode on the first page. Place the book on the cradle, slide it across until you hear the clunk noise. This will indicate that the book has been successfully loaned and then you can move on to the next item. DVDs are loaned out in a similar fashion. Place the DVD on the cradle, slide it across until you hear the clunk noise. This will indicate that the DVD has been loaned out. Please note that CDs cannot be issued from the self-service desks. These have to be taken to the circulation desk situated at the front of the library. Sometimes you may come across an item which has the barcode on the wrong side, in which case you are unable to issue out the item in the self-service desk. In this situation please report to the front desk to borrow out the item. Here's another example of where you'll need to take an item to the front desk to be issued. Once you have scanned all your items, select print receipt towards the bottom of the screen. Keep this receipt for your records. Please note that all DVDs are locked. When borrowing a DVD, you'll need to go to the unlocker which is situated outside the library. To unlock the item, slide the DVD down like so and then you'll see that the DVD is now unlocked.
