RFID BASED BOOK TRACKING SYSTEM FOR LIBRARIES

SYNOPSIS:

The paper presents a new approach to establish a wireless technology for the locality of

book location, and continuously track locations of these books. Track the book continuously it

transmit book and along with location information will passed to transceiver and then

transceiver passed to control monitoring place receiver. In this system we maintain information

of the book activities.

The project describes a radio frequency-based and zigbee based system for location

identification and tracking. The basic design of the system consists of transmitters in the

environment, transceivers on the book or object for which location information is desired, and

a receiver in the environment. Each of these three pieces of hardware and their associated

software are designed.

PROBLEM STATEMENT:

Manual operation

Unsafe

Books Theft

PROPOSED SYSTEM:

To remove manual book keeping of records

Traceability of books and library members as they move

To minimize the manual errors and theft control

Less time consumption as line of sight and manual interaction are not needed for RFID-tag reading.
