Project Abstract

Abstract
The implementation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology in Library Management Systems has been a topic of increasing interest and research in the field of Library and Information Science. This research project aims to explore the various aspects of integrating RFID technology into library operations, focusing on its potential benefits, challenges, and implications for library staff and patrons. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study examines the current state of RFID technology in libraries, highlighting key findings and trends in its adoption and use. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, presenting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and structure of the research. Additionally, key terms related to the topic are defined to provide clarity and context for the reader. Chapter Two presents a detailed literature review, consisting of ten key items that explore the existing research and practices related to RFID technology in library settings. This section provides insights into the benefits, challenges, and best practices associated with RFID implementation, offering a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of RFID technology in libraries. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and ethical considerations. This chapter provides a detailed explanation of the research process undertaken to investigate the implementation of RFID technology in library management systems. Chapter Four presents the findings of the research, including a discussion of key themes, trends, and insights derived from the data analysis. This section explores the impact of RFID technology on library operations, the experiences of library staff and patrons, and the overall effectiveness of RFID systems in enhancing library services and efficiency. Chapter Five concludes the research project with a summary of the key findings, implications, and recommendations for future research and practice. This chapter also reflects on the significance of the study in contributing to the understanding of RFID technology in library management systems and its potential implications for the future of library services. Overall, this research project provides a comprehensive examination of the implementation of RFID technology in library management systems, offering valuable insights and recommendations for libraries seeking to adopt or enhance their use of RFID technology.
