Use of QR Codes in Libraries: Librarians and staff in large research universities, small liberal arts institutions, public libraries, and museums are experimenting and discovering useful ways to implement QR codes in both their physical and online libraries. “Library Success: A Best Practices Wiki” has a QR Codes page and is one place where librarians and others can share and link to how their libraries are using QR codes. Libraries can create a literature blog, a site where reviews about fiction books are posted and where readers can add comments or recommend their favourite books. Most of the novels reviewed in the blog can have a physical QR code. Such codes can be sent to readers to our blog, allowing them to read the whole post, read the comments or leave a comment saying whether they liked the book. Libraries can simply generate QR Codes that go to our library blog URL. Since most blogs are automatically mobile friendly, this works well. Many libraries today are on Facebook, Twitter, etc. so, QR Codes can be linked to these accounts as well. QR Codes can be added in catalogue records to offer patrons basic info about an item, including the location and call number. Users can scan the code and head to the stacks rather than writing or printing. QR Codes can hold and provide more information such as table of content of the books, abstracts (if given) etc. In printed guides about the use of services and/or products offered by the library, a QR code has been added that links to the digital version of the guide. This way, users who have saved the QR code could access the guide from their mobile device anywhere at any time. Libraries can use QR Codes for library tours, shows and exhibits so that users can simply scan the codes and get the information related to these services. Library exhibitions that include a QR Code link to songs, videos, web sites, surveys, contests, etc. or other information that augments the exhibits. Art shows or permanent art in libraries with a QR Code linking to the artists’ web sites. Any collection in the library that has an online component is fair game for using QR Codes in the stacks. It can be added to print journal shelves, linking to electronic versions. Special collections could link to metadata, video, podcast, feedback etc. with their location on the shelves (Pons et al. 2011).
