Selexyz Maastricht bookstore

Selexyz Maastricht bookstore
A Dutch bookstore is located inside a 12th century church. But don't let that fool you--it uses the latest RFID tracking system.

The historic town of Maastricht in the Netherlands is home to one branch of the country's second largest book chain, BGN, housed in a striking 12th century church. But its location isn't the most interesting thing about it--the Selexyz Maastricht store is home to one of the first and most extensive rollouts of RFID tracking technology in the world.
