Cordless hand-held device that reads 3M™ RFID Tags on library materials for sorting, shelf reading, reshelving, searching, weeding and exception finding. The DLA can hold information on more than one million items.
Open the door to all the benefits of the 3M™ Tattle-Tape™ System with RFID with this little tag!
We are only beginning to tap the potential for the 3M Digital Library Assistant (DLA). The future of this new library management tool could make shelf-reading, shelving, data collection sorting, searching, weeding and exceptions handling routine tasks in your library. In fact, in five years or so, libraries will probably be using this tool in ways we haven't even thought of yet.
Download information into the DLA for more than a million items -- the entire collection of many libraries! -- directly from your current automated circulation system. Now you have a portable, handheld device with which to actively manage your library collection.
Comfortable, ergonomic design and swivel antenna maximize comfort, minimize stooping, bending, and stretching to read shelves at all levels.
Facilitates discovery of cataloging errors that would otherwise go unnoticed.
