Key Features of ISO 15693 RFID Library Label

1. NXP ICODE SLIX RFID Technology

The RFID book label uses the ICODE® SLIX chip, which is specially developed for smart labeling applications including libraries, archives, and document management.

The chip provides:

• ISO 15693 compatibility
• Unique identification number
• Reliable read/write performance
• Anti-collision function for multiple tag reading
• Data protection features

This makes the label suitable for environments where thousands of items need accurate identification.

2. Designed for Library Book Tracking

Traditional barcode systems require manual scanning of each book. RFID library labels simplify the process by allowing faster identification.

Typical applications include:

• Book circulation management
• Library inventory checking
• Self-service borrowing machines
• Book sorting systems
• Archive tracking

A single RFID label can connect physical books with digital management systems, improving operational efficiency.

3. Compact Sticker Design for Easy Installation

The 50×50mm RFID label format is optimized for book applications.

The thin sticker structure allows installation inside:

• Book covers
• Inside pages
• Archive folders
• Document containers

The label can remain hidden while providing reliable RFID identification.

Available materials include:

How Does an RFID Library Label Work?

An RFID library label contains three main components:

1. RFID chip
2. Antenna
3. Adhesive label layer

When an RFID reader sends a 13.56MHz radio signal, the passive RFID tag receives energy from the electromagnetic field and responds with stored information.

The basic process:

RFID Reader

Library Management System

The RFID system can automatically identify books without requiring visual contact like traditional barcodes.

RFID Library Label vs Barcode Label

RFID technology provides significant advantages compared with conventional barcode management.

For modern libraries, RFID labels provide better support for automation and digital transformation.

RFID Library Label vs NFC Tag

Although both RFID library labels and NFC tags operate at 13.56MHz, they are designed for different purposes.

For professional library systems, ISO15693 RFID labels are usually a better choice because they are optimized for inventory management and large-scale identification.

Advantages of Using ISO 15693 RFID Library Labels

Improve Library Inventory Efficiency

Managing thousands or millions of books manually can be time-consuming. RFID library labels help reduce inventory workload by enabling faster identification and automated data collection.

Library staff can use RFID handheld readers to quickly check shelves, locate missing books, and update inventory records.

Benefits include:

• Faster book counting
• Reduced manual operations
• Improved inventory accuracy
• Better collection management

Support Self-Service Library Systems

Modern libraries increasingly use self-service equipment to improve user experience.

The RFID Library Label can work together with:

• Self-service borrowing machines
• Self-service return stations
• RFID security gates
• Library management software

Users can borrow or return multiple books efficiently without manual barcode scanning.

Reliable Performance for Long-Term Use

Library books are usually used for many years. Therefore, RFID labels need to provide stable performance under repeated handling.

The label materials can be selected according to different environments:

• Standard coated paper for general books
• PET material for long-life applications
• PVC material for stronger protection

The durable construction helps maintain RFID performance throughout the product lifecycle.
