Self-service at UvA and HvA libraries

Higher service level

With self-service all material is faster available. This technique combines security and identification of material and makes collection management easier.

Staff is still available to assist if neccessary and to answer questions. Staff can now concentrate on rendering other services, such as the production of digital readers and assisting by mail, telephone or UBAcoach.
