Taking Circulation Desk automation to next level
NGL Open Source
NGL introduces “Counter” and “Touch” applications. These both tools together reduce the work of your Circulation desk staff drastically. It is very helpful at the time of peak hours of the Circulation desk. For example: During examinations period or end of the semester or recess time.
NGL Touch and Counter implements the below use cases. NGL Touch is a solution for Self-help computers (Kiosks). NGL Counter is a solution for library security. It tracks library visitors
