Some of the libraries that I have been in (University and public) do not
bother to deactivate the markers in their books.  When someone wants to
remove materials from the library, they give them to a staff person near the
door, who makes sure they are checked out, and then passes them around the
exit sensors to the person as they are leaving.  I have also seen this
method used in large video rental stores.
