3M Tattle-Tape
BSD uses the
3M Tattle-Tape as a security feature for its books and AV materials. It is a
magnetic metallic strip embedded in a strip of thick and clear double-sided
adhesive. A piece of security strip is affixed firmly between the sheets of
book. If a user takes the book and attempts to leave the library premises without
borrowing it, an alarm will sound at the gates near the library exit. To
prevent this from happening, users would need to borrow the materials using the
self-check kiosk first. The self-check kiosk would desensitize the security
strip in the book or AV when the user checks out the item. When the book is
returned, it is re-sensitized again.
How to use the
3M Tattle-Tape?
Open a page of the book from the back (about 4-5 pages away from the last
page), carefully paste the strip between two pages and press down firmly
to secure the strip.
