Smart Library System Using IoT

Abstract

This paper proposes the design and implementation of smart library for digitalizing the library by using Internet of things without any human interruption. The arduino mega 2560 is main component of this project it is interfaced with Radio frequency identification technology, Liquid crystal display(LCD),GSM Module and NodeMCU. Implementation of this framework is based on RFID technology i.e. RFID tags are placed on books and RFID reader is used to read these tags. This study is to automize the library such as allowing fast transaction flow and easily handling the activites like process of issuing and return of book from library can be done using by using RFID technology and student will get notified using GSM. RFID is used to check the availability, misplacement of book, provide anti-theft and location of book. Book availability and location of book can be checked on webpage. Information of each user card will be maintained on database and update automatically using IoT.
