Computer science In recent years, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has become widespread automatic identification and data capture technology with huge potential in broad range of industry sectors including libraries. The main goal of this thesis is to give more visibility concerning the use of the RFID technology applied to the library environment in SIRIM Berhad.

Limitations imposed by the system include complexity in system integration and enhancement, slower circulation rate and inefficiency in inventory identification and tracking due to the barcode system.
