CILIP's RFID in Libraries Conference 2012
Thursday 15 November 2012 | The Bloomsbury Hotel, London
Early bird registration now open<https://www.cilip.org.uk/rfid2012/pages/register-now.aspx>, plus discounted packages for group bookings
This year's CILIP RFID in Libraries Conference examines the changes that have taken place since 2011 and focuses closely at the issues surrounding migration to the new data standard. At a time when many existing RFID users of the technology are asking "should I convert?", this conference will shares the experiences and rationale of some of those who have already made that decision.
2012 has also seen the publication of a new version of SIP - SIP 3.0 - and its subsequent donation to the American information standards body NISO. What are the implications of this move for SIP, for NCIP and for the future of RFID/LMS integration? Does the UK's own library communication framework - BLCF - developed by the industry for the industry provide a solution - or another problem? Speakers from both sides of the pond will seek to answer your questions.
This year's conference will bring:
* 11 expert speakers from across the RFID Community
* International speaker line-up
* RFID technology demonstrations from leading suppliers
* The BIC/CILIP RFID in Libraries Innovation Award 2012
* Networking drinks reception
