Hunan-dalu allan mewn eiliadau. Dychweliadau 24/7. Llyfrau wedi'u cam-silffio a geir mewn munudau, nid oriau.
Y Tu Hwnt i'r Cod Bar
Libraries are community hubs, but librarians often feel like warehouse workers. Hours are spent manually checking books in and out, sorting returns, and searching for mis-shelved items using line-of-sight barcode scanners.
Patrons want convenience. They want to grab a book and go, or return it 24/7 without waiting in line. Traditional EM security strips protect against theft but offer no inventory intelligence.
The result is a friction-filled experience where staff are buried in administrative tasks instead of engaging with the community.
Straen Ailadroddus
Mae sganio â llaw o filoedd o lyfrau yn achosi anafiadau straen ailadroddus (RSI) i staff.
Rhestr eiddo ar goll
Mae llyfr sydd wedi'i roi ar y silff anghywir yn llyfr coll. Heb RFID, mae dod o hyd i lyfr sydd wedi'i roi ar y silff anghywir yn chwilio am nodwydd mewn tas sarn.
Rhesi
Mae adegau brig yn creu llinellau hir wrth y ddesg gylchrediad, gan siomi'r cwsmeriaid.
Tap, Gollyngwch, Wedi'i Wneud
Nextwaves brings the library into the modern age with HF/NFC and UHF RFID solutions. We insert a thin, invisible RFID tag into the spine or cover of every book.
Self-Checkout Kiosks allow patrons to stack 5-10 books at once on the pad. The system reads them all instantly, deactivates the security bit, and prints a receipt in seconds.
Smart Return Chutes (AMH) accept books 24/7. As the book slides down the chute, it is scanned, checked in, and even automatically sorted into bins for re-shelving. Staff can use handheld wands to sweep shelves, instantly finding lost books and verifying order.
ROI Cymunedol
Hunanddefnydd
Grym i noddwyr wirio allan a dychwelyd eitemau ar unwaith, gan leihau llinellau.
Rhestr eiddo Smart
Dewch o hyd i lyfr a osodwyd yn anghywir mewn eiliadau trwy gerdded i lawr y coridor gyda gwialen.
Dychweliadau 24/7
Mae disgyniadau llyfrau awtomataidd yn diweddaru cyfrif y noddwr ar unwaith.
Rhyddid i Staff
Mae llyfrgellwyr yn symud o 'drefnwyr llyfrau' i 'arbenigwyr gwybodaeth'.
Roedd llyfrgell ganolog newydd eisiau agor gyda model cylchrediad 'heb staff' i wneud y gorau o'r gyllideb ar gyfer rhaglenni cymunedol.
Ymfudo Sydd Ddim yn Aflonyddu i Noddwyr
Transitioning a library's entire collection is a significant undertaking, which is why we design for co-existence. Our hybrid tags contain both the legacy barcode and a new RFID chip in the same label. so your existing ILS keeps working while staff gradually move to RFID workflows at their own pace.
For most public libraries we recommend HF (13.56 MHz). the same frequency used by payment cards and NFC phones, offering excellent precision and patron privacy. Large academic archives handling bulk inventory of tens of thousands of items benefit from UHF's speed. We assess your collection and recommend the right frequency, not a one-size approach.
Llyfrgell Sydd Byth yn Cau
RFID makes the 'unstaffed hours' model viable. Registered patrons can access the building with their member card, browse and check out books independently, and return items through automated drops. at 10pm on a Tuesday, or 6am on a Sunday.
The same infrastructure unlocks inventory intelligence for staff: a handheld wand sweep of an entire aisle takes minutes and surfaces every mis-shelved item. What used to take a librarian a full shift now takes a few minutes at the start of the day.
