Phone Charging Station
Explore World Library installed 40
wireless charging stations this month in common spaces, restaurants, study
areas and the student union so students could continue studying while charging
their devices at their side. From the station, students grab small circular
Powermat spot and place newer enabled phones on the mat to charge it. Those
with older phones also pick up a ring to plug into their device's USB charging
port. The mat senses that a phone is on it and uses magnetic inductivity to
wirelessly transfer electricity to the device. Through an app, students can see
which stations have charging spots available, and later this year; they'll see
messages from the university about campus events. On the IT side, a central
dashboard allows staff members to monitor the charging spots for connectivity
problems.
Across the country,
Explore World Library is putting sustainability efforts to work on power
stations users in library. The charging station outside a LEED Gold certified
building has 12 installed chargers, two USB ports and two wireless charging
pads that operate like the ones at Explore World Library.
But instead of using
power from the wall, this station gets its power from its solar panels and
kinetic energy tiles laid down in front of it. The station also includes a
campus map and event notices to engage the campus community.
Along with the
stationary charging station, Explore World Library has a portable one that
representatives take to regional events and festivals. This station serves as a
recruiting and retention tool with its large and place to charge devices.
Readit Wand
Readit Wand is a
highly advanced portable auto reader / CCTV system for close up work.Simply

seconds later, your document is being read aloud to you, in your chosen text
size, colours and formatting. Reading couldn't be easier.
Readit Wand's Benefits
Readit Wand features
many benefits over standard video magnifiers and digital capture systems
including users read faster.

print text can be read over twice as fast as traditionally enlarged text from
standard video magnifiers. It also allows you to read for longer periods with
much less eye strain. Second is read
back of your documents. Users get the benefit of both automatic
scrolling AND speech output of their document if they wish, further helping to
increase reading speed and document comprehension. Next, fast multi-page capture which 30
pages per minute capture means you can capture and store entire text books or
long documents in minutes, not hours. Once they're captured, you never need to
carry them with you again. Readit even remembers your position in each document
when you re-open it.

Machine can automatically print, bind and trim on demand at point of sale perfect bound library quality
paperback books with 4-color cover indistinguishable from their factory made
versions. The inside pages of the book are black-and-white The EBM will print
bind and trim a 300 page book in about 7 minutes with a one printer model and

customers the opportunity to print professionally-bound copies of their
own work

domain, out-of-print, and out-of-copyright books

Library Utensils
Obviously, introducing a system like
FingerLink will exceed library’s yearly budget several times. There is a
cheaper alternatives. A library could offer patrons a variety of small utensils
they could borrow to use in the reading room. Based on the picture above, a
concept device that you can put on your pen to use for translating words found
in the print book. In addition, it could be a simple pen that would let patrons
make digital highlights. One condition – it should be done in a simplest
possible way. Such library utensils would be useful for less tech- savvy
library patrons or those who don’t use advanced apps (for instance the ones
with OCR – optical character recognition) on their phones.
Book Delivery Drone
To get the book from library, you can either go and find it, or you can let
it find you. This belongs to unmanned flying machines, and just like Amazon
drones can deliver the goods to customers, libraries could deliver the books to
patrons. What unique about this technology is the system use hexacopters, drones
with six rotors, to deliver ordered textbook. Now, the smart thing is that the
drone can find you by the location of your smartphone, so there is no need to
give a fixed address. Apart from that, just imagine when you are sitting in a
reading room of the library which wants to get a book. Stay where you are, and
use the app to order a book. The drone will come, just like this one. Pull out
the book from the box and put the one or ones you don’t need any longer. The
drone will place them they belong.
Library Guidemark & guide
This is one of the advance technology used in our library. An interesting
concept from a Chinese design company Toout. This little tiny device is in the
first place a regular bookmark. But on top of that it also has features that
could make using the library much easier. First of all the device would be a
perfect companion when navigating through the library , by giving turn –by-
turn directions to the book the patron wants. The device could also keep track
of all borrowed books, as well as remind the user of the return dates. Finding
a book easily without knowing the Dewey Decimal Classification system? Sounds
like good idea of where the library card could evolve.
Intelligent Return Trolley
This technology is
intelligent return trolley is the fastest way to check in library items. Intelligent
shelves detect and identify all items that are placed between the RFID
bookstands. When situated near the entrance of the library, it is easily
accessible for a patron. He places the books on the shelf and the items are
automatically checked-in in your Library Management System. All the items are
directly available for the next patron to be borrowed. Consequently, over 25%
of all books returned are checked-out on the same day. With this technology,
returning an item does not take more than just placing one or more books on the
library trolley. Anywhere. That’s it. No more queues, no more waiting in line.
Through our direct link with your Library Management System, every item that is
returned is automatically checked-in. No passes that need to be scanned. Just
drop and go. This technology increase circulation and reduces the amount of
time staff need to spend on reshelving.
SelfCheck Machine
This technology is 3M ShelfCheck System. This device give
your patron to pay their fines and fees, quickly and easily at the
self-checkout station. The self-pay fines and fees option offers a
comprehensive solution that helps your library customers make the most of the
3M SelfCheck Systems. In addition to encouraging on-time returns and improving
circulation, the self-pay fines and fees option gives staff the freedom to
provide better, more personalised service and gives the library an additional
source of revenue to support other valuable programs. This is an easy-to-use
solution that can be seamlessly integrated with most 3M V-Series, R-Series and
B-Series self-checkout systems.

Digital Library Assistant
As a component of the 3M TM RFID System, this cordless,
handheld device instantly reads 3MTM
RFID Tags on library materials, turning shelf-reading, shelving,
sorting, searching, weeding and exception-finding into routine tasks. Compact
and easy to use, the Digital Library Assistant can hold information on more
than one million items. The ergonomic design and swivel antenna maximize
comfort and minimize stooping. No more bending or stretching to read high or
low shelves. And because it simultaneously performs shelf-reading, searching

labels and provides a full range of functions for all libraries, including
location tag processing if used. This device can also quickly identify items
that were not properly checked out, and it instantly detects the security
status of materials. Start actively managing your library collection today with
the state-of-the-art Digital Library Assistant from 3M.
Digital Locker
The Lower ground floors provide a range of
amenities to patron. Underground level 1 is an area for study and cultural
exchange featuring a 24- hour reading room, book and journal stacks and an
auditorium. Also within this area, there are over 1,000 digital lockers,
providing secure storage facilities for both immediate and short term needs and
longer periods. The lockers are set up to provide the patron with a range of
options. Lockers can be booked for 1, 3
or 6 months, and in this facility, the lockers on the top 3 rows are programmed
for longer term hire. The lockers on the
other rows are available for short term, ad hoc booking, and can even be booked
by individuals can arrange to share a locker. This system has proved to be
enormously popular with students.
Vending Book Machine
Vending technology has seen more dramatic
growth in the retail sector in 24/7 mini bookstores and DVD rental outlets.
Changing library customer expectations and lifestyles, public libraries’ desire
to explore new outreach possibilities and potential reductions in vending
machine costs may mean that the potential service benefits of vending machines
may outweigh the initial high establishment cost. In Explore World Library has
a Vending book Machine that provision 24/7 access to collections at minimal
staffing costs Pressure on opening hours due to staffing costs and the time
poverty of many library users and non-users makes this an attractive option. It
is a particularly valuable service extension when patrons can collect items
reserved online so that their access to library collections is no longer
restricted by library opening hours. A collection is stored out of sight with
access to the collection via a touch screen catalogue. Searches can be narrowed
to sub collections, like audio visual materials or children’s books. Access
requires a library card and retrieval of an item requires verification with the
card to provide security in the event of a transaction being interrupted. The
robotic delivery of items is reversible permitting returns as well. Lending
library capacity of 250 – 500 items depending on the collection mix, integrated
with the library management system. There are optional expansion bays for
additional storage and large LCD screens for digital signage and advertising.
BookBot
Up
to 2 million books can be stored in the BookBot's delivery system. Compared to
storing books on traditional shelves, the delivery system can store the same
amount of books while only using 1/9 the size of that. Library patrons do not
have direct physical access to BookBot, accessing collections instead using
pre-existing browsing and borrowing features of the libraries' website. A
virtual browse tool aims to replicate the aid to discovery that physical
library shelves provide by presenting sets of adjacently indexed titles.
