"FUTURE BOOKSTORE" OPENS -- ALL BOOKS RFID'D
Jinbo-cho is a district in Tokyo, which people call a "bookstore
town." A new bookstore, whose books are all RFID-tagged, opened in
Jinbo-Cho on October 12. Nikkei calls it a "Future Bookstore."
The actual name of the bookstore is Book House Jinbo-Cho and is
operated by Showa-Tosho, who is a distributor of Shogakkan Group.
For the moment, the shop doesn't care so much about ROI etc. Sounds
like they just want to test RFID in a real retail environment.
