RFID technology can help libraries overcome challenges like finding, sorting and discovering misplaced books. The applicability of this technology and its perceived contribution are questioned. This paper conducted an empirical test to explore employees' perceptions regarding the implementation of RFID in libraries. This paper utilized data collected in two public university libraries in Jordan. The method focused on descriptive measures to investigate the adoption of such technology. The study compared perspectives of managers and employees in regard to the benefits of RFID compared to barcode. This exploratory research concluded that no significant difference exists between managers and employees perceptions. Results emphasized RFID's contribution in inventory counting, self-lending, and material tracking; RFID is better than barcode with respect to its tracking capabilities, multiple lending options, and faster and more accurate operations. Finally, RFID cost, tag size and unemployment effect were major concerns.
