ALCTS Webinar: RFID: Considerations for Implementation

Wednesday, August 27 , 2014

Sessions begin at 11 am Pacific | 12 Mountain | 1 pm Central | 2 pm 
Eastern and last about an hour.

While much has been published on how RFID technology works and its uses 
for libraries, there has been limited public discussion of factors that 
should be considered in deciding whether to move forward with 
implementation or the specifics of planning and decision-making involved 
should a library decide to implement. This webinar will inform and equip 
librarians to handle this still relatively new territory. Presenter will 
give a brief overview of the history, the technology, and library uses 
of RFID, and factors to consider including financial, time, technical, 
consortium/community, and educational considerations.

Learning Outcomes

Attendees will be more informed and better equipped to handle 
decision-making related to RFID.

Who Should Attend?

Librarians whose libraries are currently considering whether to 
implement RFID, those in the process of implementing it, and those 
interested in learning what the technology can do.

Course Level & Prerequisites

Beginner level; no prerequisites
