Korean University automates operations with RFID from UPM
The university’s newly built library, Haksan, utilises RaceTrack HF RFID tags from UPM Raflatac, coupled with a complete library automation solution. The move away from the previously used barcode technology became opportune, as the university began building its new campus and Haksan library in Songdo in 2009.In the first phase, the Haksan library tagged 500,000 educational and research items. Thanks to the RFID-enabled library automation solution, the university’s 10,000 students are now able to enjoy the benefits of faster book circulation and easy to use self-service check-in/out stations. In addition, the RFID solution allows students to use their credit cards for library transactions, eliminating the need to carry a library patron card.
