Author(s) Shrikant S. Rokade
Country India
Abstract The research paper briefly describes the revolutionary invention of QR codes (Quick Response Codes) and how library users use them to access information for various purposes with the help of smart phones. An oral and common sample survey of 170 Library users (150 students and 20 academic staff), 20 librarians from various types of college libraries was conducted to know the implementation and use of QR codes as well as the interests of users.
It was found that 93% of libraries in rural, tribal and urban areas were willing to adopt this new technology to provide information services, but 82% were unable to do so due to lack of funds, 75% due to technical reasons, 89% meager staff and technical skill, and 68% due to the attitude of authorities. It was also observed that 96% of students (boys 92%, girls 98%) and 35% academic aspirants (young 32% and senior 6%) were interested in this new technology.
It was concluded and recommended that 66% of the total users are interested in this new technology for faster service and saving their time and 93% of the librarians are interested in adopting this technology. QR code technology is very interesting and easy to access information and it requires technically skilled and competent personnel and adequate financial and official support.
