Brodart's Lending Library Vending Machine


Brodart helps you bring true convenience to your patrons through the idea of a “vending machine,” requiring only a library card—the Lending Library.

Their web site continues "Imagine a library card-holder wanting a good read, book on CD, or DVD, last-minute, and the library is closed. Where does he or she turn? A bookstore, the bestseller rack at the grocery store, or a local superstore? All scenarios require spending money on new material. Or, that same patron, using his or her library card, could turn to your library’s quick and easy lending machine, open 24/7 for the ultimate convenience."

What do you think? Is Allegany County ready for this?
