Ordering a New Self Check Out Station

The Millennium/Via Self-Check station is a modified circulation module which allows users to check-out books independently, thereby allowing library staff to concentrate on other duties.

To run a self-check station in your library, you have 2 options:

  • You can use your existing circulation computer. This option requires no additional Millennium/Via license, so no expense is incurred by the school. The drawback is that if you need the more advanced features of Millennium, you'll need to logout of the Self-Check system and login to Millennium/Via. You cannot have both modules running at the same time on the the same computer.
  • Purchase a new computer or use an existing computer that meets the minimum requirements to use exclusively as your Self-Check station. As part of our agreement with Innovative, each school has been assigned 2 user licenses for Via. So no additonal purchase is necessary unless you wish to add a third station. In that case, you would need to order an additonal Millennium User License (software). The current price for the license is $850.00. To order a new license:
    1. Contact Josh Mack to notify him of your intent to order a new license.
    2. Next, place the order in Cayenta. Look for "Millennium Staff User License"
    3. In the purchase order notes, be sure to include a note to send a copy of the purchase order to Josh Mack so that ERS has a record of the license purchase
    4. Processing of the license order can take 4-6 weeks. Once the order has been processed, Technical Support will implement the license and contact the school to schedule a time to setup the Self-Check station for you.
