Dispensing Computers

The kiosks work like vending machines, or like the DVD lending dispensers at grocery stores. A student who wants to check out a laptop - or whatever device the university is offering - navigates a touch screen that authenticates the student's identity and then dispenses a charged machine. 

S.F. library eyes laptop-lending kiosks

The library wants to earmark $99,500 in its upcoming budget to purchase three laptop lending kiosks that would boost the number of available computers and remove the human element from the current system where librarians check out portable computers to patrons for inside use. The kiosk pilot program would start in July if the funds are approved.
