How to Borrow Items Using Self-Check

  1. From the Self-check menu, select "Checkout"

     
  2. Scan your KU ID's barcode by passing it through the red laser on pad below the screen:

     
  3. Place the item(s) that you want to borrow on the scanning pad below the screen. Do not scan the barcodes with the laser; just set the book(s) on the pad. You may place more than one item on the pad at a time.

     
  4. Leave the item(s) on the pad until the system confirms that the checkout process is complete. This will be shown on the screen when all items have turned green and a due date is listed.

     
  5. When you have processed all the items that you want to borrow, click the "Done" button on the screen.
  6. You will be given an option to print a paper receipt. If you want a printed receipt, click the "Print Receipt" button. The machine will print your receipt and it will be dispensed to the right of the scanning pad.

     
  7. You may now take the item(s) off the pad. The process is now complete. You should receive an email confirmation of the item(s) that you checked out, along with the due date of each.
  8. If the machine cannot check out the item, it will display a red-highlighted error. If this happens, please contact a library staff member to resolve this issue.
