RFID library solutions

Why choose RFID in library systems?

The evolution in recent decades in RFID in general and our RFID systems in particular are increasingly meeting the specific needs of library users and staff. Our self-service systems accelerate the circulation traffic of books and other library materials highly intuitively. Moreover, you can process multiple items at the same time.

Add to that the possibility of promoting library events and programs in our self-service software. All these aforementioned properties ensure that the circulation traffic is more efficient and accurate. The RFID security gates at the library exit detect when an item is not properly checked out. Library staff can therefor concentrate more on their core tasks instead of dealing with the circulation traffic.

Wireless (WiFi) mobile inventory scanners also use RFID. Library items with RFID labels can be identified without having to remove the items from the shelves. With a quick scan of the shelves, employees can update the collection, search for incorrectly placed items, scan through the inventory and search for missed items.

With RFID staff workstations staff can check items in and -out more easily and quickly. RFID is essential for the operation, speed and efficiency of sorting lines. Library users can return their borrowed items 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The intake system (bookdrop) feeds the automated material handling (sorting) system that sorts the materials into bins or trolleys so that they can easily be put back on the shelves.
