日本埼玉縣飯能市7月1日新啟用的新圖書館成為日本第一家利用NFC技術的圖書館,他們在書架上加入了NFC標籤,讀者在決定是否借書之前可以先透過具有NFC功能的手機取得相關資訊。

例如在上圖中,將手機近距離靠近已加上NFC標籤的作者標示牌後,手機便可連至 Wikipedia 或者是圖立圖會圖書館取得作者相關的資訊,也可以預約及回顧已經讀過的書。該館初期建置有100個標籤,預計將擴充至200個。
The library has installed about 100 tags, called “Tatchitagu," on its shelves, provided by Fujitsu. Visitors to the library can tap their phones on the tags to get all kinds of cool information–Wikipedia links to authors, pictures, and reviews, to start, but also access to services. If you want to review books, or recommend them to other readers, just tap and type.
Even better, the system lets you check out books or add them to a sort of wish list so you can remember to check them out later. No need to jot it down in a notebook, just tap. Pretty cool. (via Popular Science)
提供該館 NFC標籤的富士通(Fujitsu) 則放眼於全日本500多座圖書館,希望透過其 WebiLis 系統加以推廣。

圖書館可能的NFC應用
NFC是個很值得圖書館運用的工具,可惜目前國內行動載具支援NFC功能的手機不多…
