manage and provide security to their products or items. Information and
Communication Technology has transformed the format of information and

like qualitative information management, speedy acquisition and
dissemination of information and security of information products. This
paper gives brief idea about the RFID, its importance in the library system,
how it works and describes different components of the RFID technology. It
also briefs about tentative budget to establish RFID technology in the library
and finally its future in Indian libraries. |
