[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] RFID

[Jason Boyer]

We have 90,000+ items, an annual circ of 390,000+, and are using Bibliotheca
RFID as our vendor. They resell Tagsys gates and tags, and Feig pad readers.
We're happy enough with the hardware, but we can't update some machines
because their software won't work with Windows 7 64-bit. I'm told this will
be fixed sometime this year.

The circ software works well with Evergreen, though it occasionally has
visual problems that require closing and restarting the rfid circ app. The
conversion software can also retrieve some details over SIP2, but we don't
currently use that feature of it. It's also not ready for 64-bit Windows.
