DIGITAL ID
Lied Library and the Curriculum Materials Library have implemented a state-of-the-art collection management system using the 3M Digital Materials Flow Management system. The system uses radio frequency identification (RFID), allowing staff to track, identify, and control library material more efficiently. The Digital ID technology is used in the Libraries' self-checkout stations and in the staff workstations to handle borrowing transactions. A handheld scanner is used by staff to rapidly check shelf order, to search for missing items, and to record in-house use of most items. |
