Kiosk Patrons

Access to Books24x7 can be granted to patrons using walk-up workstations or kiosks typically located in the library. In this open arrangement, the users will normally not be credentialed. The static IP addresses of all such workstations must first be provided to Books24x7 to complete the subscription configuration. In these cases, it is each workstation that is being granted access to Books24x7 on behalf of their current patron. This does not imply that all workstations within an institution (an entire college campus, for example) qualify for kiosk status; only workstations within the library proper will be granted kiosk status.

Note: Patrons accessing the service via a Kiosk workstation will NOT have access to personalization features, such as bookshelves.
