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.
