Press the F5 function key

OR

Click on the "Checkout" button in the toolbar

STEP 2:

You will see the Checkout wizard appear. 

 Scan patron's Vanderbilt ID Card

STEP3:

Scan book barcode

STEP4:

Stamp the book's date due slip with the stamp that matches the screen "date due."

OR Write in the date due if it is a video or other item with a odd due date.

Desensitize the book spine

Tell the patron when the book is due

Click on CLOSE at the bottom of the screen to clear patron's record from the computer screen OR Click on Check Out To New User

Failure to do this final step may result in confusion from multiple windows being open on the desktop.  You may charge something to the wrong person.
