I WISH my library would do this! They are so fare behind as far as technology goes. They're pretty far behind on new releases, too.

I love our library. We have the self checkouts, the printed receipt, the online reserves, reminders, and a drive-thru for reserve pickups and book return. This place is so advanced there is a Starbucks in the lobby.

Oh gosh...our library has been doing that for years. I love our online catalog system, like others have mentioned we too can see what books are checked out, see when they're due (get reminder 'courtesy' notices when they're due in 3 days), you can renew online, request books from other libraries online (you get an email when it gets to your library and is ready for pick up)...I love the library!

My library also has self-checkout, which I love.
LOVE those self checkouts! Ours has had them for a few years now, and also sends the emails. Makes it so easy. That, and online book renewals, and requests. It's all so ncie and easy!
