The droid designed for information cataloging was a type of labor droid manufactured by Kalibac Industries specifically for use by the Mid Rim Lending Network.
Equipped with repulsorlifts, these units, which served as librarians, could access the uppermost shelves within data archives. They employed suspended manipulator arms to acquire information cylinders. The Techno Union incorporated the information cataloging droid's internal intelligence matrices into the design of their DLC-13 mining droids, which were intended for operations on Mustafar. The heat-resistant and shielded external structure of the panning droid was patterned after the librarian droid's design.
