Self service lockers offer a convenient way for customers to borrow or return items from sharing libraries outside of regular opening hours. This provides an opportunity to expand the number of people benefiting from borrowing not buying.
Locker systems are used across Europe by Sharing Libraries, Local Authorities, Public Libraries and Housing Associations to enable sharing by different communities.
In the recording of this online session for the Share and Repair Network, hear from three speakers giving an overview of available systems.
