D-Tech International HoldIT™ provides libraries with a continued service in these difficult times


Our book locker is currently working overtime! We are using all available units and still have quite the backlog of items waiting to be put in as space allows. This has been the perfect way for us still serve patrons while practicing social distancing

The HoldIT™ self-service reservations kiosk extends a library’s normal working hours by providing patrons with a pick-up station to retrieve items they’ve put on hold. Kiosks can be located outdoors making it ideal for libraries to still provide a service to patrons in these difficult times. The solution can be expanded to include over 200 lockers together with a returns bin option.

Proudly manufactured in the USA. HoldIT™ is manufactured in our New Jersey facility. We use local suppliers within our area to produce the parts needed, this includes our PCB manufacturing, which has been moved from China to Cape May County.

“I feel its an important part of our strategy moving forward to support our local businesses and community,” said Marvin Crisp C.E.O.

HoldIT™ is compatible with all integrated library systems using SIP2 and comes equipped with a choice of barcode, Mag-stripe or RFID card readers as well as a manual user ID input. Unlike other solutions, HoldIT™ allows libraries the flexibility to select different size lockers and has the most lockers per cabinet on the market today. With the added ability to be located outside, HoldIT™ is the number one holds pickup kiosk in the USA.

HoldIT™ can also be utilized for The Library of Things. With its ability to have different size compartments, it makes it ideal for patrons to pickup their Library of Things 24/7.
