This use case describes a student borrowing an asset, for example, a library book.
Borrowing assets from a library, laboratory or computer laboratory often involves the use of a ID card, and a kiosk. By placing a QR code on the asset (or access to the asset, such as a locker), a student can walk through a consent process using their own phone, and without using a kiosk. The QR code can act as portal with integration to a library management system, and use the Student ID Verifiable Credential to determine who the user is.
