RFID-Based Library Service Automation as Online and Self-Service Support

Sungkowo Edy Mulyono, Sony Zulfikasari, Akhmad Abdul Hakim

Abstract


This study explores the development and implementation of an RFID-based library automation system at Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES) in response to the increasing need for efficient, technology-driven academic library services. As the central hub for intellectual and research activities, academic libraries are undergoing significant transformation due to the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Utilizing a qualitative descriptive approach and system development methodology, the research identifies core user needs, system challenges, and solutions for enhancing service delivery. The proposed system, developed using the Waterfall model with PHP and MySQL, includes digital catalog access, online borrowing and returning, reservation management, and administrative functions. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is employed to automate circulation services, reduce manual workload, and improve user experience through self-service stations and real-time tracking. The system also incorporates autonomous features and security enhancements to streamline operations. Findings indicate that RFID-based systems significantly enhance library efficiency, user autonomy, and resource management. However, challenges such as implementation costs and digital literacy gaps remain. The study concludes that RFID technology holds transformative potential for modern academic libraries and offers a replicable model for other institutions seeking to adopt similar innovations.
