Transform your library with RFID:
Faster, Smarter, and More Secure
Say goodbye to slow check-outs and lost inventory. RFID technology automates your library's workflow, protects your collection, and delivers substantial time and resource savings while enhancing patron satisfaction.
Revolutionize Library Operations
Streamlined Workflow
RFID technology dramatically speeds up check-in/check-out processes, reducing wait times by up to 50%. Staff can process multiple items simultaneously without line-of-sight scanning.
Real-Time Identification
Conduct comprehensive inventory checks in hours instead of days. Mobile RFID readers scan entire shelves at once, identifying misplaced items instantly.
Enhanced Patron Experience
Self-service kiosks empower patrons to check out multiple items in seconds, reducing lines and freeing staff for higher-value assistance.
Slash client wait times with instant detection technology
Unlike barcodes, RFID tags provide complete collection protection, with security gates detecting unauthorized items, reducing theft by 40%. They remain active for a book's lifecycle, eliminating manual desensitizing and resensitizing for staff.
Advanced Security & Tracking
Theft Prevention
RFID security gates detect unauthorized removals, triggering immediate alerts to protect your valuable collection.
Item Tracking
Monitor the real-time location of every item in your collection, dramatically reducing losses and misplacements.
Tamper Evidence
Special RFID tags show evidence of tampering, adding another layer of security for your most valuable materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is RFID compatible with our existing library management system?
Yes! Our RFID solutions integrate seamlessly with all major library management systems including Sierra, Symphony, Koha, and Alma. We provide custom middleware when needed to ensure perfect compatibility.
How long does implementation typically take?
Implementation timeframes depend on your library's size and collection. For most medium-sized libraries, the process takes 3-4 weeks from start to finish, with minimal disruption to daily operations.
What happens to our existing barcodes?
Your existing barcodes can remain in place. RFID tags work alongside traditional barcodes, allowing for a gradual transition as your budget permits. Many libraries maintain both systems during implementation.
How durable are RFID tags in high-circulation items?
Our premium RFID tags are designed specifically for library applications with a lifespan of 100,000+ transactions or 10+ years. They withstand typical handling, cleaning, and environmental conditions
