Libraries are indispensable for books and reading, as well as an abundant source of information. The majority of the current conventional libraries employ labor-intensive, time- consuming processes that result in long lines for borrowing and returning materials. In this paper, we propose a smart library system built on the Internet of Things that addresses these issues. The proposed system involves using books that have RFID tags attached to them and a camera at the borrowing counter. The RFID readers on the bookshelves and at the borrowing counter can read the book information stored electronically on the RFID tags and the camera verifies the user by scanning their face using a face recognition model. As a result of the combination of Face recognition and RFID Technology, the system automates the processes of borrowing, returning, and sorting the books by enabling the self-borrow and self-return process along with the ability to track each book's location on the bookshelf. An e-mail will be sent to the user acknowledging both the transactions. The proposed system remarkably quickens the process of borrowing, returning and sorting thus reducing long queues at the librarian’s desk and lesser human intervention for the management.
