Lyngsoe Library Mate™ 5000: Flexible Self-Service Solution
Lyngsoe Library Mate™ 5000 is a versatile self-service solution that can be deployed as a standalone check-out kiosk or fully integrated into your library’s Automated Material Handling (AMH) system. As a standalone station, it enables fast, intuitive self-service borrowing, giving your patrons a seamless check-out experience.
When integrated with AMH, Library Mate 5000 handles returns. Patrons simply place items into the return tunnel where a conveyor transports them directly onto the sorter, which automatically routes the items to their correct destination. At the same time, the status of the returned items is updated in real time within your ILS/LMS. This flexibility allows you to streamline your workflows, reduce staff workload, and offer self-service tailored to your operational needs.
Empowering Patrons Through Accessible Library Technology
Designed with accessibility at its core, Library Mate 5000 delivers a comfortable and barrier-free self-service experience. The wall-mounted unit is height-adjustable at the push of a button, allowing users to easily adjust the station to their preferred height for an easy and comfortable interaction. Our user-friendly system offers easy-to-read fonts, intuitive voice guidance, and multilingual touchscreen support to guide patrons smoothly through the borrowing, renewal, and returns processes.
Whether deployed as a standalone solution or integrated into the Lyngsoe Sort Mate™ 2000 sorting system, Library Mate 5000 enables fast, easy, and independent use while instantly updating item status through seamless ILS/LMS integration.
If a freestanding or tabletop solution is a better option for your library, take a look at our family of Lyngsoe LibDeco™ kiosks.
