RFID Gate
Readers check out on their own. The gate keeps watch.
RFID Gate connects tagging stations, self-check kiosks, book drops and security gates to the same circulation records. A student can issue three books at the kiosk in seconds, and a book that was not issued raises an alert at the door.

WHAT RFID GATE DOES
Built for the way your library works.
Tagging station
Encode RFID tags against accession numbers while you work through the shelves. Progress is tracked shelf by shelf.
Self-check kiosk
Readers place a stack of books on the pad, tap their card and leave with a printed or emailed slip.
Book drop returns
Returns through the book drop are checked in immediately, including after hours, and reserved books are flagged for sorting.
Security gates
Gates alert when an item that has not been issued passes through, and record the item so staff can follow up.
Stock verification
Walk the aisles with a handheld reader. Missing, misplaced and unexpected items are listed shelf by shelf.
Standards-based hardware
Designed for ISO 15693 tags and the ISO 28560 library data model, so you are not tied to a single hardware vendor.
HOW IT RUNS
Four stamps on the card.
Tag
Each book's tag is encoded with its accession number at the tagging station.
Self-issue
Readers check out at the kiosk. The loan is recorded at the Circulation Desk.
Guard
Security gates check every item leaving and count footfall at the entrance.
Verify
Annual stock verification takes hours with a handheld reader instead of weeks.

QUESTIONS
About RFID Gate.
Do we need RFID to use Dvookz1?
No. Barcode circulation works on every plan. RFID Gate adds self-check and security when you are ready for it.
Can we use the RFID hardware we already own?
In most cases, yes, if it uses ISO 15693 tags. Share the make and model with our team and we will confirm before you commit.
Can we tag the collection gradually?
Yes. Barcode and RFID can run side by side, so you can tag the busiest shelves first.
Does stock verification really get faster?
Yes. A handheld reader reads many tags at once along a shelf, so you no longer scan every barcode one at a time.
