I am looking for a product that I can attach to about 30+ tablets that will set off a warning alarm when the item is taken out of a certain area. These tablets will be in a meeting room but I would like some type of warning when these tablets are taken out of the room. This option needs to be able to be turned on and off preferably with admin rights or a key/passcode. Kind of like one of those tags that are attached to clothing in a store that you have to get taken off before leaving otherwise the alarm will go off when you leave the store.
 
Just get those same tags, similar ones at least that are removable.

You want a hard tag that is removable with the right equipment. You can also contact the above company or a similar one and ask them.

now how exactly would these attach to the back of the tablet? Magnets or something of the sort? I dont want the tags to be obnoxious and ugly but I also dont want someone to "accidentally" walk out of the meeting room with one of my tablets in their coat pocket
 
You know what's funny, I read the post as "Tables" not tablets :)

For tablets, if they are to be used in the same room, you can use the small labels in the same way. Or hook them up with thin cables like they do in store displays. I would use a lighter weight cord though so they are easier to move while in use.

Best thing would be to just contact a security device vendor, the sales reps would have a lot more info, they may have products sepcifically for tablets or laptops.
