Library Management

System
Abstract
• Online Library Management System is a system which maintains the information
about the books present in the library, their authors, the members of library to
whom books are issued, library staff and all. This is very difficult to organize
manually. Owing to the advancement of technology, organization of an Online
Library becomes much simple. This computerization of library helps in many
instances of its maintenances. It reduces the workload of management as most of
the manual work done is reduced.
AIM
The project aims and objectives that will be achieved after completion of this project are discussed in this
subchapter. The aims and objectives are as follows:
 Online book reading.
 A search column to search availability of books.
 Facility to download required book.
 Video tutorial for students.
 An Admin login page where admin can add books, videos or page sources
Open link for Learning Website
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The problem occurred before having computerized system includes:
 File lost
When computerized system is not implemented file is always lost because of human environment. Some
times due to some human error there may be a loss of records.
 Difficult to search record
When there is no computerized system there is always a difficulty in searching of records if the records are large
in number .
 Space consuming
After the number of records become large the space for physical storage of file and records also increases if no
computerized system is implemented.
 Cost consuming
As there is no computerized system the to add each record paper will be needed which will increase the cost for
the management of library.
scope
The main scope of Library Management Systems are to utilize resources in an efficient
manner by increasing their productivity through automation. The system generates types
of information that can be used for various purposes.
The system helps both students and library manager to keep a constant track of all the
books available in the library. It allows both the admin and the student to search for the
desired book. It becomes necessary for colleges to keep a continuous check on the books
issued and returned and even calculate fine.

LITERATURE REVIEW
A library management system usually comprises a relational database, software to
interact with that database, and two graphical user interfaces(one for users, one for
staff). Most integrated library systems, separate software functions into discrete programs
called modules, each of them integrated with a unified interface. Examples of modules
might include:
i. Acquisitions (ordering, receiving, and invoicing materials)
ii. Cataloguing(classifying and indexing materials)
iii. Circulation (lending materials to patrons and receiving them back)
iv. Serials(tracking magazine and newspaper holdings)
v. The OPAC(public interface for users)
ANALYSIS
i.Improved customer services through greater access to accurate information
ii.Increased productivity and job satisfaction among staff members as it eliminates duplication of effort
iii.More economical and safer means of storing and keeping of information
iv. Easier access to information like management reports and stock etc.as well as accurate and faster results
from statistical analyses.
v.Reduces errors and eliminating of ennui of long and repetitive manual processing
vi.Greater accountability and transparency in operations
vii.Improved efficiency and effectiveness in administration and management as it has unprecedented access
to real-time information.
viii.More reliable security for sensitive and confidential information.
ix. Appropriate knowledge-based action and intervention can now take place in a timelier manner.
Requirement analysis and system design
Data flow diagrams
Conclusion
In conclusion, from proper analysis and assessment of the designed system it can be safely
concluded that the system is an efficient, usable and reliable Library Management System.
Itis working properly and adequately meets the minimum expectations that were for it
initially. The new system is expected to give benefits to the users and staff in terms of
efficiency in the usage of library system
