RFID Technology Implementation in Libraries and the Librarian’s role
Author(s): Poonam Rani
Abstract - The library contains many forms of intellectual capital, such as academic publications, books, reports, theses, and so on. A safe and secure environment is provided by the security system for library visitors, staff, and resources. RFID is the ideal security option for libraries due to its international standards and increased protection for library objects. In both the business and academic worlds, RFID is one of the technologies that is most widely used. It also offers high-quality services that go above and beyond what customers expect. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is available for "sightless" or no line of sight identification of things. RFID offers a lot of promise to speed up library services and streamline labor-intensive tasks including check-in/check-out, sorting, stock management, and inventory. In comparison to barcode-based solutions, RFID technology offers a number of advantages for environments like libraries. It has several other significant benefits, and it can either replace or add to existing library barcodes. It can help with circulation, re-shelving and theft detection. RFID is important for the purpose of maintaining security. In the same vein, the implementation of a security system holds the promise of boosting efficiencies and productivity while also improving the level of user happiness.
RFID technology implementation for library management system , as well as its constituent parts, benefits, and the function of the librarian, are the primary focuses of this particular study, which was written in light of the significance of library safety.
Keywords - RFID Technology, Security Systems, Radio waves, Components of RFID.
