Abstract

The advantage of radio frequency identification (RFID) over other technologies used in libraries is usually seen to be its ability to combine the functions of the barcode (as a unique item identifier) and the security tag (able to indicate that an item is being removed from the library without permission), but with the added advantage of not needing line of sight. The customer-friendly self service that this combination of features makes possible is at the heart of the attraction of RFID for most libraries. This practical and straightforward new book will consider the benefits of installing RFID technology; work with vendors; and how to implement the technology on the ground. It will also consider technical issues such as interoperability, metadata and standards. Applicable to all types of libraries, its contents include: current and potential application of RFID in libraries; how RFID works in library applications; standards/interoperability; privacy issues; how successful have implementations been? is RFID for you? building a business case for RFID in libraries; staffing implications; practicalities: choosing a system, staff development, process re-engineering; ensuring return on investment; and, RFID and libraries - the future? Written by an expert in the field, it will be a very worthwhile investment for those considering converting to RFID as well as those who are implementing it already.

Abstract

Im Juli 2003 fand in Berlin eine Tagung statt, die den Vorkehrungen gewidmet war, die Bibliotheken zum Katastrophenschutz treffen können, sowohl Katastrophen, die von Menschenhand ausgelöst werden (Konflikte, Kriege) als auch Naturkatastrophen (Erdbeben, Überschwemmungen, Orkane). Ein Gremium internationaler Experten tauschte Erfahrungen aus und diskutierte beispielsweise Planungsmaßnahmen, Verhaltensstrategien, Schulungsanforderungen sowie institutionelle Rahmenbedingungen. Dieser Band enthält die Beiträge zu dieser Tagung. In July 2003 a special IFLA conference was held in Berlin, devoted to the preparedness of library collections in the face of 'man made' disasters (conflict, war) and/or natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, hurricanes). A panel of international experts discussed these issues and exchanged views. Papers focused on both national policy planning and on the institutional level, with an emphasis on what has been shown to work on the basis of practical experience in libraries and other sectors: In addition, case studies, on a worldwide scale, are presented. This book contains the proceedings of that conference.

Abstract

Libraries are constantly at risk. Every day, many libraries and their collections are damaged by fire, flooding, high winds, power outages, and criminal behaviour. Every library needs a plan to protect its staff, sites and collections, including yours. Disaster Planning for Libraries provides a practical guide to developing a comprehensive plan for any library. Twelve chapters cover essential areas of plan development; these include an overview of the risks faced by libraries, disaster preparedness and responding to disasters, resuming operations after a disaster and assessing damage, declaring disaster and managing a crisis, cleaning up and management after a disaster and normalizing relations, staff training, testing disaster plans, and the in-house planning champion.
