Abstract
Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) Library has decided to use radio frequency identification (RFID) to secure and inventory its collection in its new building opening Fall 2010. This presentation will cover how and why that decision was made, the vendor selection process, considerations in retrofitting a collection, incorporating RFID capabilities into a new building, and how RFID is working after a couple of months in use. This talk will touch on cost, security and privacy concerns, staffing, and consortia issues.
