Don't sacrifice your brand for security. Custom printed RFID tags keep items secure and clutter free
Available for most bibliotheca RFID tags, custom printing allows libraries to disguise RFID security tags as library property labels, reducing the number of stickers that need to be placed in on or inside books.
Secure high-value assets and your Library of Things before it's too late
The small form factor RFID tag asset allows non-traditional items, such as tablets, telescopes and instruments, to remain secure yet unencumbered by cords/wires as users explore new collections, hobbies and more!
Tattle-Tape Security Strips range
Our combined solutions of security detection systems, security strips, staff tools and self-service solutions work seamlessly to deliver the most reliable security combination for libraries. Tattle-Tape Security Strips are made with the highest quality materials and are the only EM strips on the market that follow a patented 3M design process to ensure they meet previously set security standards.
Designed for CDs and DVDs, DCD-2 Security Strips integrate two strips into a clear film overlay that prevents removal and protects the surface of the disc. The Ultra-thin, double-sided B2 Security Strips are designed to be applied between pages of books and periodicals, as the extra-long liner makes it easier to insert the strip deeply into the gutter. Single-sided B1 Security Strips are designed for hardcover books and are easily inserted into book spines with a bayonet. Applied with an application system, R2 Security Strips are in roll format with no liners to remove. They’re automatically dispensed and can be applied to print materials five times faster than traditional strips. SB-3 Security Strips are designed for smaller books and are hidden by a cover-up label that can be printed with a title or other information.

New design
Make sure you're ordering genuine Tattle-Tape products.

Since this transition to bibliotheca, LLC, the Tattle-Tape brand continues to evolve Electromagnetic (EM) library solutions, pairing the latest innovation with trusted security.
Current Tattle-Tape Security Strips come in the new bibliotheca packaging. Don’t be fooled by potential counterfeit products delivered in the 3M Library Solutions packaging.
