Strategizing IoT Platforms for Enhanced Hygrothermal Monitoring and Control in Libraries: A Transition from Passive to Proactive Operations

Abstract

Abstract The management of book preservation, back volumes, and other publications within a library predominantly falls under the responsibility of library staff. The application of IoT technology in this context lacks a systematic approach to monitoring and controlling hygrothermal factors. Presently, IoT utilization is confined to a passive mode of monitoring, recording, and logging. This concise study aims to strategize and recommend the optimal utilization of IoT platforms, transitioning from a passive observational mode to a more proactive and autonomous operational mode. A qualitative methodology was employed to devise and execute the integration of IoT technology, focusing on communication through the LoRa platform and data sharing via the Wi-Fi network. Upon thorough examination of the integrated IoT platform, opportunities for implementation and enhancement become apparent. Through meticulous analysis and execution of the planned IoT platform with a scope of improvement by IIoT and battery-free sensors, a viable solution is identified, and a comprehensive evaluation of its attributes is performed.
