Hawaii State Public Libraries Introduce RFID Book Borrowing System

Hawaii State Public Libraries Introduce RFID Book Borrowing System
April 09, 2024

The official announcement from the Hawaii State Public Library on Wednesday heralded a significant technological advancement aimed at streamlining the borrowing process for library materials.

 

State Librarian Stacey A. Aldrich expressed excitement, stating, "We can now check out stacks of books, CDs, DVDs, and other materials all at once, rather than item by item, significantly enhancing the speed of materials entering and exiting the library."

 

According to the press release, the system utilizes Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) tags instead of scanning individual barcodes. The installation of the entire system took approximately a year and a $3 million allocation from the state legislature in 2022.

 

 

 

 

The rollout of the RFID book borrowing system across all public libraries in Hawaii signifies a significant leap forward in both technology and service capabilities for the Hawaii State Public Libraries. Within the library borrowing system, RFID technology facilitates swift and accurate book checkouts and returns, offering readers enhanced convenience:

 

  • Readers can expedite the borrowing and returning process, reducing waiting times.
  • The RFID book borrowing system automatically records lending and return information, aiding library management and circulation statistics.
  • Additionally, RFID technology assists in precise book location within the library, boosting search efficiency and providing readers with more accurate book recommendations.

 

 

 

 

For the Hawaii State Public Libraries, the implementation of the RFID book borrowing system marks a pivotal upgrade. This advancement not only enhances management efficiency and service quality but also underscores the library's proactive exploration into digitization and smart technologies. Through the RFID system, the library gains insights into readers' borrowing needs and reading habits, paving the way for informed book procurement and service optimization in the future.
