Design/methodology/approach
The paper provides a brief overview of background of the project, barriers faced and changes that have been experienced after the implementation of the technology.
Findings
At the initial stage the library is facing problems with regard to the lack of availability of technology experts in the library for the RFID system and also for the software. Later on the library applied some solutions and tried to minimise the problems and now it has proved to be a boon for the library.
Originality/value
The paper provides insight for other academic libraries wishing to implement an RFID system.
