Aside from reserve, a student can be able to check out an open-shelf book from OPAC himself, as long as the book is already available and it is in his hands. The book's info will already be appended to his account, pending verification of the librarian. Then, before he leaves the library, he will have to go through the librarian at the circulation desk, who will check out the patron's ID and already see the book info, without entering it. Then he will just check if the item on hand is the exact same item that the student self-checked out. After verification, then the patron will be given the check out slip.
