2.The National Institutes of Health (NIH) this week announced that it has partnered with Bibliotheca Inc., to provide RFID technology provider for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). In selecting an RFID partner, NIH Library officials said it had one primary goal: “to simplify the library’s circulation and enable library staff members to spend more time interfacing with more than 18,000 researchers, clinicians, and active NIH staff on the main campus alone.” To that end, NIH has purchased 235,000 Bibliotheca RFID book tags as well as 1000 Bibliotheca CD/DVD RFID tags.
国国立卫生研究院（NIH）本周宣布将与Bibliotheca公司合作。美国国立卫生研究院是美国健康与社会服务部（HHS）的一部分，而Bibliotheca公司作为合作伙伴为其提供RFID技术。美国国立卫生研究院图书馆负责人表示，在选择RFID合作伙伴时，其首要目标是“简化图书馆流通周期，使图书馆工作人员能够有更多的时间来与人数超过18000的研究人员、医生进行交流，或者单独为美国国立卫生研究院的工作人员提供所需服务。”为此，美国国立卫生研究院向Bibliotheca公司购买了235,000个RFID图书标签，以及1000个CD/DVD RFID标签。
