INTREPID SECURITY SOLUTIONS

Intrepid Protection for Kings Fund Library

Intrepid Library has installed an RFID based security system at Kings Fund library.

The library located in London’s Cavendish Square has been equipped with a long range RFID security antenna at each of the two exits whilst 30,000  RFID paper security labels have been applied to the library’s books.A hand held RFID reader allows library personnel to quickly scan and 'read' item numbers on shelves without the need to physically  handle each item. This  provides  faster inventory processing whilst assisting in the  location of specific items as well as identifying misplaced books and journals.

Commenting on the project, Ray Phillips of the King’s Fund Information and Library Service said: “The library was moved to a refurbished location in the front of the same building. Though the space is smaller and holds less stock, there was a strong expectation that foot-fall would  increase greatly. We therefore wanted a security system that could provide robust security whilst enhancing stock management e.g. allowing us to perform stock checks more easily, analyse usage patterns and create bibliographies for displays. etc. RFID appears to be a technology that is “future proof in that it will allows us to exploit future technological developments with ease.  For example, we are particularly interested in future developments that will allow users to interact with stock e.g. using hand-held devices to explore the stock.”
