Is the integration you’re looking for with LibCal booking different than what they offer with the tablet display URL? Apologies, you can only see the help article with a login, but this is the one I mean: https://ask.springshare.com/libcal/faq/3319
I’ve used this URL on iPads no problem, using a kiosk browser app and locking the iPad into single app/guided access mode with our MDM. I’m sure there is a similar solution for Android tablets, and probably a way to achieve this without an MDM if you don’t want to go all in on that.

Kevin,
In summer 2023, LibCal released an integration with Crestron Room
Scheduling panels. I now see that SpringShare took the info about that
down about 2 months ago (
https://web.archive.org/web/20240715000000*/https://blog.springshare.com/2023/07/27/springshare-debuts-libcal-tablet-displays-fully-compatible-with-crestron-room-scheduling-panels/<https://web.archive.org/web/20240715000000*/https://blog.springshare.com/2023/07/27/springshare-debuts-libcal-tablet-displays-fully-compatible-with-crestron-room-scheduling-panels>
). The price point for Crestron panels is likely toward the high end of the
range of options.
Best,
-Wilhelmina
