No Problem.

No Internet Connection?  

No Problem.

 

Remote Circulation enables you to record circulation events without having access to the ResourceMate® database. 

How Can I Use Remote Circulation? 

This new feature is perfect for:

  • Minimizing manual entry and human error from paper tracking circulation
  • Organizations with no internet access
  • When the internet is down temporarily 
  • For use at book mobiles, school fairs, off-site conferences, and more

How Does it Work?

Remote Circulation is a separate program that is installed onto any Windows based device including a laptop, desktop, and/or a tablet. Both your Patrons and Items must be bar-coded in order to use the new feature. The data is recorded on another computer and then transferred back to the ResourceMate® computer and processed there.
