Abstract
Operating a library involves in keeping track large number of resources such as books and magazines. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has been promoted in recent years as an alternative technology in improving asset management in a library. The RFID tags were applied to replace bar code and magnetic stripe functions as identification and anti-theft detection. This paper is written based on an actual implementation of RFID tagging system in a library one of local university in Malaysia. It focuses on three main challenges during the implementation which relates to system integration, parallel operation with existing system, and procedure changes. In conclusion, implementing RFID tag in a library faced many challenges; however the library could harness the technology advantages in improving its operation.
