UHF Library RFID Tags 9503-U9

The ID-9503-U9 is a slim 95×3mm UHF RFID library tag designed for the unique demands of book management in public, academic, and institutional libraries. At just 3mm wide, it slips discreetly into book spines without adding visible bulk, while the Impinj Monza M750 chip provides 512 bits of user memory — enough to encode call number, branch code, and ownership data alongside the standard EPC.

Why Choose the ID-9503-U9 for Libraries?

The 95×3mm form factor is the de facto standard for book spine insertion in library RFID systems. The Monza M750's 512-bit user memory eliminates the need for a back-end lookup for every scan — classification data travels with the tag. This makes self-checkout stations and handheld shelf-reading wands faster and more reliable, especially in high-density compact shelving where multiple tags enter the antenna field simultaneously.

• Book and periodical tagging — public, academic, and school libraries
• DVD/Blu-ray case tagging — AV media collections
• Self-checkout systems — high-speed simultaneous multi-tag reads
• Shelf audit with handheld readers — walk the aisle, read every spine automatically
• Inter-library loan tracking — cross-branch asset management

Compatible with all major library management systems (Koha, Destiny, Libsys) via standard SIP2 or NCIP interface when paired with an Identium UHF reader. Custom encoding with your library's item record data is available on bulk orders.
