New equipment frees staff from continuously checking in library materials to better serve patrons, including University students and faculty, with more valuable services. Robarts Library is the first of thirty-two branches at the University of Toronto to make such implementations.<\/p>\n<p>mk Sorting Systems created a custom solution allowing the University to keep its existing barcode labels and electromagnetic technology while enabling easy future RFID upgrades to accommodate the library\u2019s plans. The system includes a state-of-the-art automated materials handling system ensuring a quick yet gentle return of library items. With two interior return stations located near the entrance of the library, patrons are able to complete a return or renewal on a patron-friendly touch screen system that offers full account privacy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to improve the service to our patrons by providing 24-hour, reliable, and confirmed check-in of library materials. For library staff, the sorting component of this new system enables faster re-shelving and a change in focus toward enhancing other access services,\u201d explains Lari Langford, Head of Access and Information Services at the University of Toronto Robarts Library. \u201cThe high quality and safety compliance features of mk&#8217;s product and the innovative company profile are key factors in our decision,\u201d adds Langford.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRobarts Library is looking to the self-service solution for better service in a fast-paced community by reducing library material wait times,\u201d states Markus Flory, President of mk Sorting Systems. \u201cWe are happy to provide a hybrid return and sorting system compatible with barcode and electromagnetic security material, as well as with RFID, in order to provide the library with the flexibility of future RFID conversion without requiring any mk equipment modifications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the University of Toronto Libraries<\/strong><br \/>\nThe University of Toronto Library system is the largest academic library in Canada and is ranked in the top five amongst research libraries in North America.
