RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a compact wireless technology which has been developed in the commercial world and one of them has implemented in library management system.RFID apply automation in example inventory control in identifying books in the library.RFID technology is widely used to help problems relating to the indexing of an object such as the identification of books on library, identification of membership or tracking for recording books.In terms of identifying an object, the library has implemented a process book identification using magnetic-based smartcards for self-service purposes.The library to manage books circulations, requires technology that is capable of identify objects simultaneously without direct contact required.Various problems that faced by libraries, including the lack of guarantees for the safety of books in the library, human resources library services have not optimal yet, book information availability accuracy.Based on that problem, this research conducts development of library management information system using automatic identifier utilizes RFID and QR Code technology.Each member information stored in NFC card and each book information stored in QR Code label.Transaction of book loan and book return are done by tapping the NFC card and scanning QR Code label of each books.Testing the system by tapping an NFC Card (RFID) on a NFC Card reader/writer, the maximum distance is up to 7 cm can read NFC Card, while testing using QR Code label, it could be read at maximum distance 40 cm.Automatic identifier provides accurate information, improve library services and provide added value for library.
