RFID Workshop : Knowledge Series II : SAHS Salem (Tamil Nadu)
by Tushar Popat 30 Jan '23

30 Jan '23

Dear Librarians, Namaste from RapidRadio Solutions. We are pleased to announce *"RFID Workshop - Knowledge Series II"* - an initiative/effort from RapidRadio to share the knowledge of *RFID Technology & its Integration with LMS* with the community. The workshop sessions shall be conducted at different institutes across India between 30th Sept 2021 to 31st March 2023. Detailed list of institutes and respective workshop dates will be available on https://rapidradio.co.in/library/workshop/. Keep checking the same for updated workshops. *The upcoming RFID Workshop is at SCHOOL OF ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCES, VMRF(DU), Salem, Tamil Nadu on 04 February 2023.* RapidRadio along this journey of 15 long years have acquired more than 250 library clients across India & surrounding countries. We are thankful to the library fraternity for trusting this Indian RFID manufacturer and helping us to become one of the leading players in the RFID Automation market for libraries. Over these years we have seen that the decision to purchase RFID systems & executing the project, after the decision is made, has been one of the toughest jobs for the librarian & the institute as a whole. We strongly feel that librarians who have already implemented RFID in their libraries should come forward and share their experiences with fellow librarians on how they go about this difficult decision making process. We wish to facilitate and encourage such experience sharing during workshop sessions. The complete list of speakers will be available on the web page who would be speaking at different sessions. We welcome one and all from the Library fraternity to participate in this event through filling up the registration form.
