The base of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) was established in the 1940s. Business organizations have been exploring and implementing RFID to acquire, manage and provide security to their products. New technologies are of interest both for their potential of increasing the quality of service and for improving efficiency of operations. In the era of globalisation and liberalisation and application of hi-technologies, the world has shrunk into a small frame, as it were. In this paper the components and technical features of a modem RFID library system are described to provide guidelines for the evaluation of different systems. It also briefs about tentative cost of implementing RFID system in a library and how it functions and describes the role of librarians. Also discusses the advantages and disadvantages of RFID system in libraries.Keywords
