Abstract

Using radio waves, the RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology automatically identifies objects or people. In the latter half of the 1990s, libraries began replacing their electro-attractive and bar code systems with RFID systems. The goal of this article is to learn more about the new RFID installation at Mallareddy University Central Library in detail. It focuses on the various system components and their standards. Under the direction of the university librarian, the Mallareddy University began utilizing RFID in 2017 for routine tasks including circulation, shelf management, stock verification, shelf rectification, and theft detection. It also provided an estimate of the total cost once the RFID system was implemented as well as the pertinent costs of the various components. This essay provides a quick overview of the functionality and significance of the newly developed Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for library management systems. It also discusses the fundamental elements needed for the workout to function properly. It lists a number of RFID technology in libraries' benefits and drawbacks. Additionally, it emphasizes the use of RFID technology in the Malla Reddy University central library. This will provide other libraries fresh information about how to use RFID technology.
