Nowadays, the current status of the university wherein the security for the belongings are too weak, and the cases of missing stuff and misplaced belongings are increasing. The researchers proposed and demonstrated the integrated design of the personal belongings and library monitoring system through the use of NFC technology, Arduino Nano, Acceleration Sensor, and the GSM module to form theft prevention. The NFC tag contains a unique set of numbers as a code that will differentiate to other tags. And the NFC reader serves as the base station of the system that is connected to the server through the use of serial port and function also as a reader of data on the tags of ID and belongings plus, the design of Arduino Nano attached with the NFC tag, is capable, to send an alert signal to the librarian in real-time. In addition to that, the researchers connect the database of the system to the database of the registrar of the school to secure more the information and belongings of every student and faculty workers. The evaluation results showed a significant value to encourage future researchers to develop and innovate this into a better prototype. Furthermore, the system can be enhanced by adopting the Bluetooth software and a more advanced sensor to be more frequent and less time in the pairing of belongings and to be more useful in protecting other kinds of assets such as motorcycles, cars, etc.
