    Description/Abstract:
    Current claim-check technology relies on a numbered, two-part paper ticket. But, according to the New York Times, anywhere from 5 to 20 percent of patrons who check items, lose their tickets (Bruni, 2018). TagIT will replace these fragile paper tickets and streamline the item check-in process using common handheld devices and wireless access to cloud computing. With TagIT, an attendant will create a unique record for each patron, adding images of the checked items using a smartphone or tablet’s onboard camera. The attendant will select the item image and scan the storage bin Quick Response Code, or QR code, in which the item is stored. When all items have been imaged and added to the record, the patron will receive an E-mail with a Web link to the record. The images, QR codes, and bin identification are now part of the patron’s record and can be viewed and verified using the link. The link will also provide a means to request the return of the checked items. And if a patron forgets to retrieve an item, TagIT will provide the means to contact the patron with retrieval instructions.
