 There are two self-issue machines located next to the issue desk. Place the barcode of your library ID card under the card reader. Your account will be checked. Slide the item you wish to borrow along the cradle, making sure that the front page is open and the scanner reads the barcode. When you hear the clunk sound, the item has been issued to your account. If the barcode is located in the wrong place, or if the book is too large, you will not be able to issue the book to yourself, and you should take them to the issue desk. DVDs are issued in the same way as books. Videotapes must be taken out of the case to be scanned. Once read, place the tape in the desensitiser. Music CDs cannot be self-issued and have to be taken to the issue desk. Press the receipt tab to close your record and print a record of the item's borrowed. Keep this receipt as proof of the transaction. If a problem arises and you are unable to use the self-issue machine, take the item to the issue desk to amend your account. It could be that you have fines to pay over £10, or that you have late items that need to be returned.
