The Bibliotheek Turnhout recently reopened after a major renovation. For over 10 years, the library sat in a temporary location only now to return, along with DocAtlas,to the Warande.

The result of all the labor is worthy of mention: the library is once again a jewel of the present day and ekz benelux is therefore proud to be the supplier of its self-service equipment after a careful and extensive selection process.<\/p>\n

Visitors can again borrow and lend their materials in the familiar way, but with some innovations! One of the first libraries in Belgium, the Turnhout library introduced self-service based on RFID technology more than 14 years ago. With the remodel, the decision has now been made to thoroughly update the equipment.<\/p>\n\n

Just next to the entrance on the left side are 4 lending units. These are all equipped with a payment terminal, allowing customers to pay any charges at the lending desks as well.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the entire user interface has been completely revamped and uses 22-inch touch screens. Upon entry, customers can place materials in 4 drop-in boxes.<\/p>\n

When the materials are placed on the shelves, the material is immediately taken. On the side of the drop-in boxes is the familiar payment terminal.<\/p>\n

Another new development is that visitors are counted through modern camera-based visitor counters. Of course, this is done in compliance with privacy requirements and no images are stored, only movements are recorded.<\/p>\n

Security gates at the entrance ensure that any materials not properly loaned are spotted.

All in all, a successful project with a beautiful result!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
