The Library welcomes readers in using its self checkout and check-in systems. Readers can also refer to circulation counters for librarians to carry out checkout and check-in operations.
Self Checkout Machine
Both the main library and all branch libraries have Self Checkout Machines for readers to operate on their own. Readers can also use Self Checkout Machines to look up their personal records. This saves waiting time in lines that is fast and convenient.
Self Check-in Box and Categorizing System
Expiration Notification
After checking out library materials, readers can log on to the Online Public Access Catalogue (https://ipac.nlpi.edu.tw) to look up their personal records. Although the Library also provides supplementary e-mail and text message notification services, communication quality may be affected by the service stability of teleservice carriers and the user’s device using habits and settings. Therefore, the personal records presented at the Online Public Accessing Catalogue prevail over all related notifications. Readers cannot relieve themselves from related expiry or violation responsibilities in the name failing to receive notifications.
