RFID

Today I figured out what RFID means. It's radio frequency identification tags. I wasn't able to watch the presentation on them, possibly because I'm using Emory's wifi system and am not at home but I hope to be able to watch it before class tomorrow. I did, however, have time to read the sections of the report on RFID's in libraries that Dr. Oguz wanted us to get read before class. I have to say that some of the more technical parts of the report made little sense to me but I think I got the gist of how RFID technology could be important to libraries. I'm still not sure whether I think that this new technology is that much more beneficial than bar coding but I'm sure our guest speaker tomorrow will convince me otherwise.
