LIBRARY customers in Alcester can now borrow and return items using its self-service ‘Grab and Go’ machines.
Visitors don’t need an appointment and can turn up at any time during opening hours.
They just need to bring their library card so they can use the self-service machines and, to maintain customer safety, face coverings will be compulsory except for those who are exempt.
Customers are encouraged to ‘Grab and Go’ and will be given up to 30 minutes to choose the library items they want to borrow and issue them.
There is no access to other services such as newspapers, no seating, and no public access to photocopying at this time.
Hand sanitising stations will be available on entry to ensure good hygiene.
The number of people allowed inside the libraries at any one time will also be limited and customers’ contact details will be recorded for NHS Test and Trace.
Staff will be available to help customers with queries about joining the library or their existing library account.
