...looking for ways to check out our books on Shabbat. We are looking for ideas and would be happy to learn from your experiences.
In this case, the pre-Electronic Age School of Thought works like a dream for us. With construction paper, index cards and shoe boxes, we have re-invented the olden-times Reader Card System. The reader removes the book card from inside the book, puts it into their Reader Card, tosses the filled Reader Card into the handy shoe box left in the middle of the table, and helps themselves to a chocolate in the pretty ceramic plate (that I bought so many years ago up in Teruel).

The reader card is a side-opening card. I have uploaded to Photobucket two images here <http://s726.photobucket.com/user/albatoscano/media/BiblioTarjeta635x515_zps4o9rlirx.jpg.html> and here <http://s726.photobucket.com/user/albatoscano/media/BiblioTarjetas485x446_zpsjrgtlaqe.jpg.html> The colours of the cards have nothing to do with anything. I pulled out all of adecuate spare bits of card stock left stashed in the arts and crafts box. I folded and glue-sticked the paper then rounded the front top corner with scissors. It measures 2.5x3.5inches. The cards have the Rules of the House printed on them front and back as such:

_Rules of the House_ (loose translation)
Starting with the 2nd year of membership, the member may check out books
A member may take out one book per Reader Card
The owner of the card is responsable for the good health of the book until its safe return
The book must be back within a fortnight.
The librarian can recall the book at any time if needs be
If the book is lost or damaged beyond normal use, the owner of the card must replace the book.

Cheers
