Hi, David.
I can only speak to the piece about how RFID works in Evergreen.
I've been working today on a migration from Horizon to Evergreen at a
site with 3M RFID. On circulating machines, the RFID pad works as a
human-interface device, and simply is treated like a barcode scanner
or keyboard.
The pad has a software widget that runs alongside the Evergreen staff
client and reads (programmable) keypresses to know whether it should
be placed in securing or unsecuring mode -- we set this up to be F1
and F2 to mirror Evergreen check-in and check-out keypresses.
The RFID self-check machine just points at a SIP2 server like a
regular self-check machine, and it works fine too.
RFID was actually the easiest part of this migration, but YMMV. :)

Hi
I am interested to know if someone has implemented RFID in your libraries
and how does it work actually?
Do you receive sponsorship of a company?
please let me know about the prices and costs of RFID implementation and how
does it work with the evergreen system
thank you David
