University of Manitoba introduces NovelBranch for Self-Service Reserve Collection Kiosk

Students at the Agriculture and Engineering buildings have a new addition to their halls.  NovelBranch is serving up reserve course material to students who access the unit by swiping their card, opening the door and selecting off the shelf a needed title to borrow.  NovelBranch takes care of all the updates to the Alma ILS.  And returning material is just as easy.   All circulation policies are in effect, whether that means a specific title can only be borrowed for 3 hours or 3 days.  They are conveniently located and very visible.  One is located outside the Library so its available even when the Library is not, and the other is located near a student gathering spot.
