2. Before the reader comes to the self-service book borrowing and returning device, the reader will identify his reader card on the card reader of the book self-service borrowing and returning device. After the identification is completed, the reader can borrow books on the self-service borrowing and returning device. .

2.1. If you are returning a book, use the book self-service borrowing and returning device to read the logo of the returned book, and at the same time perform relevant processing on the book. After the book is returned successfully, there will be a prompt on the screen, and the return list will be printed out at the same time.

2.2. If you are borrowing a book, or borrowing a book after returning the book, the reader must first put the reader card in the designated place. The card recognizer transmits the obtained information to the library database computer through the network, and verifies the validity period and borrowability of the reader's card. For prompts that meet the requirements, put the books to be borrowed in the designated location, and the self-service book borrowing and returning equipment will process the books. At the same time, the book is degaussed, and the borrowed book information is written into the library database computer through the network. The system prompts that the book is borrowed successfully, and the list of borrowed books is printed.

During this process, the cameras of the video monitoring equipment are used for monitoring, and the video monitoring equipment is connected with the main control computer of the library security center and the access control management equipment.

3. After borrowing and returning books, readers pass through the detection gate of the book detection equipment, and the detection information of the detection gate is written into the library database computer of the library business computer through the main control computer of the access control management equipment and checked.

3.1. If it is to return books, after the readers borrow and return the books normally, the access control management equipment will automatically release them when they leave, and the main control computer of the access control management equipment will control the controllable door to open, and the readers will walk out of the library.

3.2. If it is borrowing books and re-borrowing books, the detection door will identify the books borrowed by readers. If the books have gone through normal borrowing procedures, the controllable door will open. If readers carry books that have not been borrowed, the access control management equipment will not be unlocked, and the video surveillance equipment will start to capture and alarm, and the library security center will be able to see the scene and deal with it in a timely manner.
