Check library books out and in

A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 6 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.

How to check library books out and in

  1. 1Click Library under Library & resources in the sidebar
  2. 2Click Check out / in to open the scan station
  3. 3Scan or type a barcode (e.g. RIV-BK-000001) — a handheld scanner types the code and presses Enter for you
  4. 4To lend: pick the Borrower (student), check the Due date (filled in two weeks out), and click Check out — the station then clears, ready for the next scan
  5. 5To return: scan the barcode again, set the Condition on return (good, damaged or lost) and any Damage / notes, then click Check in — a damaged copy moves to maintenance
  6. 6Click Back to library, then the History tab, to review past loans

Part of Library, resources & reservations

Barcode labels you print yourself, a scan station for checkout, holds families place from home, shared equipment reserved with dates instead of arguments — and the textbooks, shelf counts, and supply cupboard that come with all of it.
