Self-Checkout

Innovative offers two products that enable patrons to check out items without staff assistance, and to access and manage some patron account information.

Express Lane offers patrons the ability to check out items. Depending on the optional products and features used with Express Lane, patrons can also renew items, view or pay fines, and view or cancel holds.

The SIP2 Circulation Interface enables libraries to use third-party SelfCheck units that communicate with the Sierra system via the 3M Standard Interchange Protocol. Depending on the SelfCheck unit's capabilities and the optional products and features enabled, patrons can use SelfCheck units to check items out and in.
