INTRODUCTION

RFID based systems are going to revolutionize the entire library automation
systems. In this project we are going to develop library automation system,
which will track the books, whether they are issued or they are in library, so that
library user will get the instant information.``

RFID can be used library circulation operations and theft detection systems.
RFID-based systems move beyond security to become tracking systems that
combine security with more efficient tracking of materials throughout the
library, including easier and faster charge and discharge, inventorying, and
materials handling.

This technology helps librarians reduce valuable staff time spent scanning barcodes
while charging and discharging items. RFID is a combination of radio -frequency-
based technology and microchip technology. The information contained on
microchips in the tags affixed to library materials is read using radio frequency
technology, regardless of item orientation or alignment (i.e., the technology does not
require line-of-sight or a fixed plane to read tags as do traditional theft detection
systems). The RFID gates at the library exit(s) can be as wide as four feet because the
tags can be read at a distance of up to two feet by each of two parallel exit gate
sensors.
 RADIO-FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to

automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. The tags contain
electronically stored information. Passive tags collect energy from a nearby
RFID reader's interrogating radio waves. Active tags have a local power source
such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters from the RFID
reader. Unlike a barcode, the tag need not be within the line of sight of the
reader, so it may be embedded in the tracked object. RFID is one method for
Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC).

RFID tags are used in many industries, for example, an RFID tag attached to an
automobile during production can be used to track its progress through the
assembly line; RFID-tagged pharmaceuticals can be tracked through
warehouses; and implanting RFID microchips in livestock and pets allows
positive identification of animals.
WORKING OF PROJECT
 MICROCONTROLLER( P89C51 Micro Controller)

The Philips microcontrollers described in this data sheet are high-performance

static 80C51 designs. They are manufactured in an advanced CMOS process
and contain a non-volatile Flash program memory. They support both 12-clock
and 6-clock operation. The P89C51X2 and P89C52X2/54X2/58X2 contain 128
byte RAM and 256 byte RAM respectively, 32 I/O lines, three 16-bit
counter/timers, a six-source, four-priority level nested interrupt structure, a
serial I/O port for either multi-processor communications, I/O expansion or full
duplex UART, and on-chip oscillator and clock circuits.
 APPLICATIONS

READERS IN LIBRARIES:

Our readers can be used for Access control, Time & Attendance, Vending
machines, industrial and other applications where Reading the data from the
Card only is required.

Readers in RFID library are used in the following ways:

 Conversion station: where library data is written to the tag

 Staff workstation at circulation: used to charge and discharge library

materials

 Self check-out station: used to check out library materials without staff
assistance

 Self check-in station: used to check in library materials without staff

assistance

 Exit sensors: to verify that all material leaving the library has been
checked out

 Book-drop reader: used to automatically discharge library materials and

reactivate security

 Sorter and conveyor: automated system for returning material to proper

area of library

 Hand-held reader: used for inventorying and verifying that material is

shelved correctly.
 Utilize the RFID Technology

As libraries are implementing RFID systems, it is important to develop

best practices guidelines to utilize the technology in best way and to keep the
privacy concern away. The following may be the best practices guidelines for
library RFID use are as :

 The Library should be open about its use of RFID technology including
providing publicly available documents stating the rational for using
RFID, objectives of its use and associated policies and procedure and
who to contact with questions.
 Signs should be pasted at all facilities using RFID. The signs should
inform the public that RFID technology is in use, the types of usage and
a statement of protection of privacy and how this technology differs
from other information collection methods.
 Only authorized personnel should have access to the RFID system.
 No personal information should be stored on the RFID tag.
 Information describing the tagged item should be encrypted on the tag
even if the data is limited to a serial number
 No static information should be contained on the tag (bar code,
manufacturer number) that can be read by unauthorized readers
 All communication between tag and reader should be encrypted via a
unique encryption key.
 All RFID readers in the library should be clearly marked.
 FUTURE SCOPE FOR PROJECT

 Manual Work will be reduced.

 24*7 access for Library.
 Automation in Library.
 Library can be modernized.
 Easy tracking of books.
 Cost efficient.
