Usually the store item has hidden within it somewhere a small magnetic or sensitive piece of tape which activates a scanner, or detector, located near the doorway. Thus when you leave the store with a stolen item, or leave the library with a book you wish to steal, the hidden sensitive tape activates the alarm system. Of course, some 'no-steal' devices are not at all hidden but very plainly obvious. These deter the shoplifter immediately.
All the devices are 'neutralized' at the check out counter and then the paid items no longer 'sound the alarm'. Shoplifting adds considerable to the cost of business and libraries suffer greatly from theft.

Do bar codes make security alarms in the store go off?
Sometimes it matters what you buy.like say you just bought a phone and you walk into a clothing store now if the clothing store has one of the security alarms it would go off even though the phone is payed for.

Usually you can tell if when you peal off the barcode tag there are little metal rings (Which can be removed). Often valuable objects such as Xbox360's, iPhones, PS3's, ect. have these on them. Sometimes a secretive tag inside the box, which is why I wouldn't recommend stealing an iPhone, Xbox360, or anything else valuable in a box. Items that I am 90% sure do NOT have security alarms in the barcodes are packs of gum, candy bars, cheap lipstick, and anything else cheap or inexpensive. I hope this helps.
