Just imagine a large public library without clerks. You help yourselves there. You order the librarians what kind of book, you require. Within a minute, the librarians will provide you. You also notice no long queues at the library counters and no overdue penalties. So much so, you find you return your books at an offside drop box and get instant credit for having returned them.



It all happens because the libraries are all set to bid bye to the outdated bar-code technology and kick up to adopt latest RFID technology.



The Netherlands-based Royal Philips Electronics has taken a step to speed this process. The RFID chipmaker has redesigned its ICODE tag and named it ICODE SLI-S.



The ICODE SLI-S is enriched with security and privacy features with password protection. In addition to these, the latest RFID tags of Philips has high read capacity which makes it utmost useful for the library’s automated management of its media.



In other words, it prevents unauthorized access to your document by any other person in a library. The password protection also averts people from illegally switching off the electronic article surveillance (EAS) anti-theft functionality. The users can make self-help in the tag-attached library.
