Since it took a while to get our online catalog
https://fisherlibrary.rmwebopac.com/ up and running, we are only now getting to
curbside checkout. But our system is pretty simple:
1) Search for an item or items in the catalog and reserve.
2) Staff (i.e. me) checks item out and notifies patron.
3) Item is placed on a table inside an outer storm door of our synagogue (which
is open M-F 8am-2pm) for pick up. Returns are accomplished the same way. Our
open hours aren't ideal, esp for parents who are working from home. But 2pm is
when our building manager locks up. I have also allowed certain people to
return items any hour of the day to my home or mail them in.
4) Returned items will be in quarantine for 24 hours, wiped off, then shelved.
We are a small library, so this isn't hard logistically.
We have yet to decide on delivery for those unable or unwilling to make the
trip. That might be on a case by case basis. But so far, we have not had
requests.

We are starting to consider this - members reserving/requesting library items
than having a pick up time curbside outside. There are many factors to
consider, so I am wondering whether any other synagogue libraries are looking
at the possibility.
