The use of open source hardware (OSH), ie hardware and electronics created on the basis of open projects on the same basis as free software libraries can allow for a quick and cheap to develop prototype electronic tools-connected computers and integrated systems library, and enable automation of simple, repetitive tasks and simplifying library many time-consuming procedures. The article lowes department store presents an increasingly popular platform in the world OSH - Arduino, discussing in detail its physical components, the characteristics of the development environment and range of applications and how to implement this system in the library Brock University (St. Catharines, Canada), the implementation of two separate projects to facilitate the collection and analysis of statistical data.
Arduino was designed in 2005., Italy, as an alternative to the then prototyping systems. It is cheap, easy to use also for novices system consisting of a plate with a microcontroller and environment for building software. Arduino systems are available in many models, sets, shapes and sizes as well as specialized and modified versions. You can buy them in formal, complex and tested packages (prices from a few dozen to a few hundred thousand) lowes department store or build your own components, based on publicly available schemas. The platform is fully interactive and allows you to connect various types of input and output devices and read and transfer data from them, and self-creating solutions fully responding to local needs, for a fraction of the cost of a commercial product. The authors discuss in detail the development of the system, principle of operation, the main advantages and limitations of the platform, and possible applications of the Arduino libraries. Also describe how, in order to simplify lowes department store the James A. Gibson Library parts made manually procedures constructed based on the Arduino two new tools: 1) Barcodinator, lowes department store a portable scanning barcodes and designed to facilitate the collection and incorporation of data on materials used for area library lending statistics system's Innovative Interfaces lowes department store Millennium (implemented for regular use in September 2012.); 2) Tabulatron - hardware interface statistics program tab, allowing the registration number and types of information given to the use of users (an application is still in the testing phase).
