Back porch site for the Vending Library. Before installation Note the data jack and electrical outlet!
You can reorder a row or the whole machine. The shelves drop down for access.
In this machine, there are 20 dvd’s in a row and four rows in a tray. We have 3 trays for dvd’s. Because the books are such different sizes, PCLC machines are configured to have 9 , 11, or 21 books per row. Each machine may be configured according to your needs and you may reconfigure the shelves if you want to change things around later.
Patrons love the service Comments: “I stop by here on my route, it is so convenient for me!” “My kids love to pick out new movies and we don’t have to get on a waiting list. “I love it! Can you put in more machines?” “I use the machines and the bookmobile. It saves me from having to drive so far to use a library.” “I tell all my friends that you can use it on Sunday.” QUESTIONS and REQUESTS: “ I wish I could have the item behind the one in front!” “ When are you coming to put in new stock, so I can be here ?”
