TROUBLESHOOTING
If your books didnt zap properly- grab a red tag, let the next person do their books and ask for help.
It is usually simple to check out your own books if you have no books overdue.

If you have a problem, or you are unsure, ask another student to help you- or take a "Borrowing Assistance Needed" tag for your books and come back when a teacher is available to assist you.
Sometimes you just need a librarian to sort out the problem- its OK. You should be self borrowing in no time :)

If the computer is not responding :( (This happens often)- write your name and the first 5 digits of the code number, on the borrowing list (on the clipboard on the circulation desk).
The number should look like R20768J 4464.
So you would just need to write R20768 with your name.
