Féin-Eisiúint Ar mhaith leat leabhar a fháil ar iasacht nó a fhágáil ar ais ach níl an t-am agat fanacht i scuaine ag an deasc eisiúna? Nó ar mhaith leat úsáid a bhaint as an teicneolaíocht is déanaí atá ar fáil sa leabharlann? Tá meaisín féin-eisiúna sa leabharlann is féidir a úsáid am ar bith le linn uaireanta oscailte na leabharlainne. Féadfaidh tú:
Rochtain a fháil ar do chuntas trí do chárta mic léinn a úsáid agus leabhar a eisiúint chugat féin
Leabhar a fhágáil ar ais
Leabhar a athnuachan (mura bhfuil sé thar téarma)
Nithe eile ar do chuntas a fheiceáil Tabhair ar aird le do thoil go mbíonn gnáthrialacha iasachta i bhfeidhm– ní féidir leat leabhar a fháil ar iasacht má tá rud éigin thar téarma nó má tá fíneálacha móra ort. Más gá duit fíneálacha a íoc ar nithe atá thar téarma beidh ort teacht chuig an deasc eisiúna. Cuir ceist ar bhall foirne má theastaíonn cúnamh uait an meaisín féin-eisiúna a úsáid.
