Lalatendu Satpathy, Anijo Mathew · 2006

This paper presents a comprehensive overview and study of a proposed RFID Assistance System that uses existing technology and devices to enable faster book search, information overlay, and check out in a public library. The proposed system uses an interactive graphic interface contrary to the conventional alpha numeric character systems used in the Dewey Decimal or the Library of Congress system currently used in public libraries.For the user study, we set up an analog version of the proposed system to compute accessibility as well as response times. The survey also lists responses to the usability of such a system for library search and check out.
