Implementation of rfid in university library: An advanced research at Maharshi Dayanand University, Rohtak

Abstract

RFID is a cutting-edge integrated library management system that enables the instantaneous detection and recognition of library materials. RFID applications vary from book monitoring and stock management to security in general and completely automated book classifying at the moment. Shortly, RFID systems will play an important role in data collection, recognition, and analysis required for specific library operations. An RFID-enabled automated library might be a “self-service station” that involves reducing the amount of interference from staff members. Efforts are being made to implement self-service “check-in” and “checkout” to prevent long delays in the delivery of library collection and to improve operational efficiency. Considering the significance of library security, this paper focuses on the use of Radio frequency identification (RFID) in libraries, including its elements, advantages, and the role of the librarian. The researcher collected the data of 50 users from Maharshi Dayanand University library, Rohtak, to find out the status of RFID implementation and the satisfaction level of users with the system. Most of the users are satisfied with the component and its benefits of it.
