Overview
Card reader is an open-source printed circuit board by bubbapizza, from the bubbapizza/doorController repository on GitHub, published under the GPL-3.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 62 × 15 mm with 7 parts on 8 nets, routed with 17 tracks and 0 vias.
Its parts include 2 resistors, 2 diodes, 2 connectors and 1 IC. It belongs with the radio and wireless boards of this library.
README
READMEThis is (going to be) a full DIY solution for a door controller. The door can be locked or unlocked using an arduino or a raspberry pi to interface witha Parallax serial RFID card reader for the controller hardware.
The backend logic for the door controller is handled in python.
The arduino sketches have no logic in them whatsoever. All they do is
accept single character commands over the virtual serial port
and control some lights, a buzzer and rfid controller. All back-end logic
is handled using python.
I've also included a couple Arduino sketches for dealing w/ Wiegand RFID card readers. I'm not sure if the wiegand stuff actually works or not since I never tested it. One sketch is an RFID emulator which is supposed to emulate a wiegand card reader. The other sketch is for controlling a door using a device that speaks the wiegand protocol. testing

Questions
How big is the Card reader PCB?
It measures 62 × 15 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Card reader use?
7 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Card reader KiCad files?
From the bubbapizza/doorController repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCAD/rpi-door-control/card-reader.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Card reader design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
