Integration of KOHA Library Management System and RFId Technology: A Review of Prospects for Modern University Libraries in Kenya

Abstract

This book reviews of the current prospects of the use of KOHA library management system in a RFID technology-driven library in Kenya. As an open-source software, KOHA presents the possibility of saving money for the institution. However, due to its current limitations, there are charges for installation, customization, and training. The integration of KOHA and RFID presents potential challenges/complications that will make it difficult for the institution to achieve its objectives in establishing a modern library. The book recommends a careful review of all options before embarking on an integration process for KOHA and RFID technology.
