Abstract：Implementation of RFID in university libraries of Bangladesh Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the present status of implementing innovative radio frequency identificationRFIDtechnology in university libraries of BangladeshThe main obstacles of implementing this technology among university libraries and ways to overcome the obstacles are also describedDesignmethodologyapproach This study uses both qualitative and quantitative approaches along with review of related literatureThe present scenario of RFID implementation status of Bangladesh is shown by a survey with a structured questionnaire and reviewing related literatureFindings The findings show that RFID is being used in the university libraries to reduce staff stressincrease efficiencytrack and locate items quicklybook drop support at any timeeasier circulationpromote self-check-in check-out activitiesetcThis study identifies the challenges in libraries of Bangladesh which are lack of adequate fundingunavailability of RFID accessorieslack of skilled manpowerunwillingnesserratic power supplyetcAlsoit suggests some suitable ways such as creating positive impression and attitudesarrangement of proper trainingappointment of skilled manpower and allocation of sufficient budget to overcome the existing challenges of RFIDOriginalityvalue The study describes the benefits of RFID technology for librariesand some recommendations are proposed for extensive use of this technologyLibrary AutomationThe application of RFID technology in the librarysuch as self-help borrowing and item trackingetcare related to library automationCollection ClassificationRFID can help quickly locate and track the collections of librarieswhich is related to the classification of collectionsRetrieval and IndexingRFID technology can quickly track and locate items to speed up retrieval speedRFIDwireless radio frequency identificationtechnology allows items to perform wireless communicationwhich is usually used in items tracking and recognitionIn this articleRFID technology is applied to academic libraries to improve efficiency and convenienceConsidering that IoTInternet of Thingsis mainly concerned about the interconnection of objectsRFID just falls into this category
