New Shenzhen Library
The new Shenzhen library will have a cool RFID
system:
TAGSYS will undertake a library RFID project in China. It will take place at the Shenzhen Library. TAGSYS will deploy around two million RFID tags on books, CDs, VHS tapes, patron cards and other library materials at Shenzhen Library by the end of June. It would be the largest RFID library deployment in China and second largest in the world. TAGSYS’s RFID deployment at Seattle Public Library is the first largest deployment.
TAGSYS plans to expand their business in Asia. It has started its Hong Kong office in 2004. The leading RFID tags developer has also collaborated with NEC Corporation, internet, broadband and enterprise business solutions provider and Shenzhen Seaever Enterprise Co. Ltd. The Shenzhen Seaever Enterprise is joining hands with TAGSYS for the library RFID deployment project.
