The key features of our fastracq service are designed to provide significant cost savings to the overall library budget:

  • Your books arrive ready to be shelved (covered, labelled and security tagged)
  • Dawson is already attaching RFID tags to books in conformity with the instructions provided by each customer. We have arranged with all the major library RFID suppliers to obtain RFID programming units to enable the writing of information to tags as part of the servicing process. Libraries can therefore be assured that the programming equipment used by Dawson is the same as that used within the library.
  • They are accompanied by a high quality AACR2 catalogue record (MARC21, UKMARC or UNIMARC)
  • Spine labels are already fixed (Dewey or LC classification in your chosen format)

The key advantages of fastracq are:

  • No cataloguing backlog
  • Books reach end users faster
  • Titles immediately available for viewing in the library OPAC

Systems used by libraries and already benefiting from the Dawson fastracq service are Talis, Voyager, Horizon, Dynix, Geac Advance, Aleph, Innopac, Millenium, Unicorn, BIBSYS and Heritage.

fastracq is a considerable addition to the Dawson service and contributes to major savings in library cost. fastracq has a fifteen year proven track record of providing this service and now has more than one hundred clients for whom we generate 520,000 spine labels and 110,000 catalogue records each year.
