Butters , A. (2007).   RFID systems, standards and privacy within libraries. The Electronic Library, 25(4), 430-439. https://doi.org/10.1108/02640470710779844 

This article discusses the main threats to RFID technology: privacy of borrower, threats to library collections, and profiling.  It also offers suggestions to secure RFID tags.  Butters has worked extensively in the field of RFID, and is considered to be an RFID expert.  He currently works for a for-profit company, Sybis, and previously for 3M.  There is the possibility of bias due to these connections.  Butters expertise inside the company that actually markets and vends the software is also an asset in gaining a different perspective on security aspects of RFID.
