[Libs-Or] Using Envisionware RFID Inventory Reader with Sierra

[Stacy Johns]

Hi!

For those of you working with Envisionware RFID systems in concert with the Sierra ILS: would you be willing to share best practices for how you handle the inventory data you collect with the Mobile Reader wand?  My library is new to RFID and we are just starting to work on inventorying some small collections, and I was surprised to find no way to pull the wand data directly into Sierra.  Instead, I created lists, exported them into Excel, and then imported the wand data into Excel to compare using conditional formatting and sorting.  Is that what others are doing, or have you found a more efficient way?

I can be contacted off-list at s.johns at newportlibrary.org<mailto:s.johns at newportlibrary.org>.

Apologies for cross-posting.

Thanks much!
