The Hardware at the desk: A PC with a browser, even a ThinClient will do. We use Wyse T50 in some installations. Minimum: a barcode reader acting as USB HID, can be used for patron cards and items. Barcodes can be discriminated syntactically.
Optional, for bulk checkout/checkin: A RFID Reader which handles reading and (un)locking, we use an OpenSource Java tool named JkbdRF.jar
