Library RFID Tag | UHF library label | HF RFID book label

INTELLHYDRO library RFID tag is widely used for automatic data capture in library applications (i.e. academic, public, corporate, and other special applications). RFID technology provides an enhanced user experience for library applications and in related industries that require item tracking.

INTELLHYDRO provides excellent quality RFID Library Label Tags for books in either HF or UHF frequency. Both frequencies can be utilized in a library system with the major difference that UHF provides a faster and longer read range making inventory taking much faster. Both frequencies library RFID tag provide convenient solutions for self-check-in / check-out, RFID gate, library article return, product sorting, theft prevention, and queue busting.

INTELLHYDRO RFID Library Tag is optionally available with logo printed in monochrome or full color. Furthermore, library RFID tag can be pre-printed with QR / Barcode and RFID chips can be customized encoded.

What’s the advantages of INTELLHYDRO library RFID technology can bring?

Reduction of staff duties

Use of RFID technology in a library can decrease the time needed for circulation duties since more than one tag can be read at a time. Patron checkout stations can additionally free up staff from these duties. The time necessary to complete an inventory of the library collection can be reduced since inventory can be accomplished with a wand reader as the staff member walks through the stacks of the collection. In addition to the inventory, this wand can also determine if items have been shelved in the correct order. Conveyor belts and sorting systems can reduce time that staff spend shelving returned items because the items can be presorted. By reducing the staff duties in these areas, staff may be used more efficiently in other areas including increased face-to-face service and increased the number of community programs.

Reduction of staff injuries 

Karen Schneider, director of Library’s Index to the Internet, states that the repetitive motion required by bar code scanners, including flipping an item and angling it correctly, cost libraries millions of dollars a year in work place injuries. Some libraries, including the San Francisco Public Libraries, look to RFID as a way to reduce the repetitive stress injuries caused by sustained and repetitive motion connected to circulation duties especially. Research varies as to the amount of workman’s compensation claims that are connected to repetitive stress injuries caused by circulation duties, and to what level RFID technology will reduce these injuries and claims.

Reliability

Correctly operating readers and tags can have near 100% detection rates. Since the tags and sensors communicate with the Integrated Library System (ILS) it is possible to know exactly which items are moving out of the library. The high reliability is especially important when RFID is used in theft detection.

Tag life and appearance

Vendors claim that the tag life can be at least 100,000 transactions or at least 10 years. These tags do not interfere with the appearance of the book, and can even be made to appear as a bookplate.
