Proposed Solutions

HCL is proposing two proposals for Client Name, Location. One is based on RFID based circulation solution and second is based on Barcode based circulation solution.

Barcode Based Library Management Solution

We propose Barcode based library management solution for our Client Name, Location. The manual circulation of resources at the circulation counter can be completely eliminated, members can be issued barcode enabled membership cards and each and every book, charts and pasted with barcode labels.

In the circulation counter along with the library management software and handheld barcode reader, staff at the circulation counter can issue and return the books with minimum time wasting.

As the library currently have a collection of __________ books, charts, etc. stocking taking will be easier with barcode based solution. With barcode printer, library can take print out of cards, labels for books anytime of the year, without much expense.

Library will be required to take print of the barcode for the books, etc i.e. __________ collections and a predefined format of the member card. These member cards can have logo of the institute, photo of the user, institute address and name and contact details of the user on the member library card. Library has to take the print out of any of the above any time during the session and any number of times.

The following hardware are proposed herewith.

1. Label (Polyester) these label will are special in nature. They are laminated and will stand much longer to the second proposed label. Polyester label are waterproof and can be used for a long time.

2. Label (Paper) these label are made of simple paper. Here libraries have to laminate the label so that it can stand the natural calamities or human interface. These will be cheaper but will require periodic changes.

3. Barcode Printer: The special printer is used to print the barcode label and member ID’s for the library.

4. Barcode Software: barcode software is used to generate the barcode label. The software which HCL is proposing can be used to modify the layout of the library card i.e. logo of the organisation, image of the user and information like institute name and address, etc and user name, id, address can be included in the label format.

5. Fixed Barcode Scanner, for the circulation of books, etc from the circulation counter. Barcode scanner will scan the barcode details of the member, once the account become active, the staff can scan the barcode label of the book

6. Wireless Barcode Scanner, is used for the stock taking of the collection. The wireless can be taken anywhere within the shelves, labels can be scanned and the information will be collected on the PC in the library anywhere.

Future Up gradation

Library can opt for any one of the solution for current use like for Barcode Solution, which is cheaper compare to RFID solution. But buying a cheaper

barcode solution will not stop library to upgrade to RFID based security and circulation solution in future. LMS completely support the integration of both RFID solution and Barcode solution one after the other or together simultaneously.

In our view library with limited collection and users should go for barcode based circulation system, which not only meet the their current requirement of speedy circulation and quick stock taking but also help them to upgrade to new technologies in coming future. And if library is opting for RFID based security in future plan but currently cannot allocate the budget, they should always go for library management solution, which can easily support any RFID security solution; which meet all international standards; without depending on the library management solution provider/vendor.
