Hi Kevin!
We utilize touchscreens for our study rooms which are reserved through the LibCal system. We use AMX display screens. I was not here when they were set-up, but they work very well. We are a Microsoft Institution, and this works by each room being scheduled in LibCal which is connected to Outlook where the screens then pull the Outlook information for display. They were wired into the wall when our library was being planned in a new building back in 2013 so I'm not sure what our model is, but it looks similar to these https://www.amx.com/en-US/product_families/varia. There is an occasional issue where a screen is lagging and the IT department come and fix it, but otherwise they work great great.
Hope that helps!

Hello Hivemind!
Has anyone come across a touchscreen product / software that can integrate
with LibCal's room booking?
Thanks,
Kevin
