Electromagnetic Sricker used in Library.

[TONY GEORGE]

Dear Members,

     Can any one can give the availability of ELECTROMAGNETIC STICKERS used in library books to check them against theft?  If any one can give more insight into this particular device / material please post it.

Dear George,

It is not clear what exactly you asking for, which kind of information?

Vendor information or sticker specification only?

Have you completed the automation part by using RFID technology or planning to do?

Please clarify above. Then only exact answer can be given.

Thanks...

Dear Mr. Munesh,

   My boss told me Electromagnetic sticker is more cost effective compared to RFID technology and takes care of security of library resources as RFID does.  Hence he asked to explore the possibility of providing Electromagnetic stickers to library books.  Now I am seeking the both VENDOR INFORMATION ( Nearest one to Mangalore, Karnataka ) & STICKER SPECIFICATION.  Besides I want to know approximately how much will be the cost involved in fixing Electromagnetic sticker to 20,000 books.  Is there any hardware involved in making the sticker functional please provide the best in the industry and the name & latest version of the software if required any ?

Regards

Hope you will find the below Information useful

The ultra-thin, double-sided 3M Tattle-Tape Security Strips provide Electromagnetic (EM) security for your library books and periodicals. The extra-long liner makes it easier to insert the strip deeply into the gutter, making it virtually undetectable. These strips cannot be shielded by the human body, or other common objects, providing effective and reliable security for your assets.

...better you consult with vendors for financial details.
Instead of electromagnetic strips, RFID is more fast taking place in libraries.
Please wait till some replies and Recommendations.
