Intelligent bookshelf is considered as a promising application field. Relying on the intelligent bookshelf system, the efficiency of library literature along the shelf has been greatly improved, not only in speed, but also in quality. Through the collection inventory, we can not only accurately grasp the number of collected documents, but also grasp the types and real-time location information of documents, realize the almost impossible task of manual shelving, and provide accurate collection analysis data for reader service and document procurement departments.

With the help of the intelligent bookshelf system, the bookshelf information and document address information of circulating library documents can be collected by scanning the bookshelves and circulating materials with RFID tags, which can help to arrange shelves, find and count specific circulating materials. After the bookshelf information is merged with the bookshelf distribution map of library stacks, a detailed data model map of bookshelf distribution address can be established, which provides a fast man-machine interface for daily book management.

The application of smart bookshelf is a comprehensive application of RFID technology. The application of intelligent bookshelf embodies the service aim of the library to serve and provide convenience for readers, and also provides a more efficient way to improve the efficiency of book management and reduce the cost of library management. The appearance of intelligent bookshelves gives full play to the application value of RFID technology in libraries and realizes a real "intelligent library".
