There are some details on the use of RFID technology in libraries here, which I find curiously interesting. One of the things that supporters of volunteer libraries don't always seem to appreciate is that combining a non-Council library with Council libraries would mean integrating with the Council technology. That would mean tagging all the books in the volunteer library before they became compatible with either the self service machines or the management system (for using the catalogue for example).
That would be a considerable cost to the Council, in addition to whatever technology support was provided.
