Application advantages of RFID technology in Tansoc
RFID technology is not only a simple substitute for barcode, its systematic application will bring the revolutionary influence on the whole work flow, traditional service and library management. Compared with traditional barcode and magnetic strip, its advantages mainly in following four aspects:
1.Improve the book borrow-return efficiency
The traditional barcode and magnetic stripe technology require the staff to open the title page of book and find the barcode, then scan and degauss which is inefficient in borrow-return. RFID readers can read information in a non-contact way. And with anti-collision function of RFID technology you can read and identify multiple books at the same time, thereby enhancing the borrow-return efficieny and readers reception capacity.
2.Improve the service level
Through the self-service borrow-return peripheral equipment, readers can find the shelf number of book through network system, which will be quickly and accurately to find the required books. Self-service in borrow-return procedures will bring convenience to the readers. The library can reorganize to save human resources and switch from traditional management to serve readers and other value-added services.
3.Strengthen the collection management
In open bookshelf stacks, as a librarian, it usually takes a lof of enengy to find and classify books that in disorderly, workload and work intensity is relatively large. By entering the book shelves information into RFID stystem, the staff can find the disorderly book information through the hand-held reader during the daily checking, which makes the sorting become more easily.
4.Strengthen anti-theft monitoring capabilities
Traditional magnetic strip anti-theft system often appears false alarm, not completely degaussing wrong alarm and many other non-real steal alarm. The RFID access control system can through integrated reader to determine whether the book being cheked for misleading or omitted books through borrowing records, and then determine whether to make an alarm action or not which can reduce the missing and false alarm rate.
