Abstract

Purpose – Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) uses different detection technologies and integrated library systems (ILS) at its four libraries located at different sites. Hence, ubiquitous data management system is required in the four libraries to enable real-time data sharing and tracking among the libraries. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – Proof of concept is used to verify the performance of integration between different detection technologies including barcode, high frequency (HF) and ultra high frequency (UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) as well as Integrated Library Management Utility (ILMU) and Koha ILSs. Five pilot tests are performed to investigate the speed of the borrowing and returning transactions, the efficiency of security gate to detect non-borrowed items, and the reliability of the ubiquitous data management system. Findings – The HF RFID technology and the proprietary library system have been used in many libraries. The current study proves th...

UHF RFID概念验证(POC)与开源ILS在马来西亚大学(USM)图书馆

目的-马来西亚理科大学(USM)在位于不同地点的四个图书馆使用不同的检测技术和综合图书馆系统(ILS)。因此，四个图书馆需要无处不在的数据管理系统，实现图书馆之间的实时数据共享和跟踪。本文旨在探讨这些问题。设计/方法论/方法-概念验证用于验证不同检测技术之间的集成性能，包括条形码，高频(HF)和超高频(UHF)射频识别(RFID)以及集成图书馆管理实用程序(ILMU)和Koha ILSs。通过五项试点测试，考察了借阅和归还交易的速度、安检门检测非借阅物品的效率以及无处不在的数据管理系统的可靠性。高频射频识别技术和专有图书馆系统已在许多图书馆中使用。目前的研究证明……
