    摘要: A retrieval assembly (22) for moving storage media (16) within a media library (10), the media library (10) including a rack assembly (20) having a first rack (20A) and a spaced apart second rack (20B), comprises a picker system (32), an assembly base (30), a first mover (28A), a second mover (28B), and a control system (26). The picker system (32) selectively engages the storage media (16). The assembly base (30) supports the picker system (32). The first mover (28A) is secured to the assembly base (30), and selectively moves along the first rack (20A). The second mover (28B) is also secured to the assembly base (30), and selectively moves along the second rack (20B). The second mover (28B) is spaced apart from the first mover (28A). The control system (26) controls independent movement of the first mover (28A) and the second mover (28B) to position the assembly base (30) relative to the storage media (16).

    摘要: A storage media retrieval assembly (22) for moving storage media (16) within a media library (10) including a library housing (12), comprises a picker system (32), an assembly base (30), and a first sensor (240A). The picker system (32) selectively engages the storage media (16). The assembly base (30) supports the picker system (32). The assembly base (30) is movable relative to the library housing (12). The first sensor (240A) senses if the assembly base (30) is level relative to the library housing (12). Additionally, the retrieval assembly (22) can further comprise a mover (28) that is secured to the assembly base (30), the mover (28) selectively moving the assembly base (30) relative to the library housing (12). In alternative embodiments, the first sensor (240A) or a second sensor (238A) can be a home sensor that senses a home position of the mover (28) relative to the library housing (12).

    摘要: A climate controller for a media library having a library interior includes one or more of a temperature sensor, a temperature controller, a humidity sensor, and a humidity controller. The temperature sensor senses an inside temperature within the library interior. The temperature controller is positioned within the library interior. The temperature controller controls the temperature within the library interior based at least partially upon the temperature information. The temperature controller can include one of a temperature increaser and a temperature decreaser. The humidity sensor senses an inside humidity within the library interior and generates humidity information. The humidity controller is positioned within the library interior. The humidity controller controls the humidity within the library interior based at least partially upon the humidity information. In various embodiments, the humidity controller cooperates with the temperature controller to control climate conditions within the library interior based on climate conditions outside of the library interior.
