For our library, it is to cut down on human error. Sometimes it happens because the clerk is not paying attention as they scan for check-in, but I think it is often a clerk getting distracted before they scan the book and then laying the book down with the scanned ones by mistake.

One requires a different person to do the second check. The only problem with that occurs when the first person is looking for work to do and isn't allowed to do the second check in of the cart she checked in earlier in the day.
