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
