Kiosk browsers

[Liebhardt, John T.]

Hello all,

We are a medium-sized academic library looking for a kiosk browser that would allow patrons to do some quick searches on the catalog and databases, but keep them from loitering on these stand-up machines watching You Tube videos, checking Facebook, etc. (We have an information commons where they can research and study.)

We built an in-house version that does a pretty good job keeping people from leaving the Library website, but the browser is clunky and lacks usability.

For those using Kiosk browsers, what did you purchase? How is it working for you?

Thanks,

John
