Project Objective
As from the name above “library management System”
means the system will be responsible
to manage all the records of the library.
Under system library there are various attributes upon which the system will be
work by integrating all the modules with the aim of achieving the common goal
which is make processing work smoother and simpler. Library management system
will have different type of users so to make a secured system, there will be
three type of users by which this system will be used and these three users
will be admin, members and students. Only admin have will have the pre
installed admin id and password by which these can be changes while running
this program by its admin. Admin will have the authority to add members and
their login time and session up to which they will allowed to use this system.
Admin will have the responsibility of issuing book, receiving it, making fine
statements for the defaulters, making entry for new books. All the modification
work such as adding and making correction, deleting of books, student records
will be done by the admin of this library management system. There will be
number of modules which has been provided under this system by which its user
will able to get results whenever they are in need of it. This system will able
to provide details of issuing and deposited books date wise, it can restrict
the number of books can be issued by each student, list of all books available
in the library and their stock details, listing of books category wise.
Searching of books can be done using various parameters such as by entering the
author names, vendors, publishers, subject wise. It will help students to
easily locate the book under the library by giving details of their location
which will save their time.
Existing System
In the previous system, there was only a single
common login module by which it was not able to make differentiation between
the admin and working staffs. As the authority which has been provided to the
admin was also used by the working staffs which is not good for modern library
environment. Even students get the list of book of their demand by using search
option but it was very hard for them to check out their location and finally
they have to take help of library staff members to get their books. Existing
system was only able to store and maintain information of books, so a file has
to be maintained for every students who are taking the facility of library.
Proposed System
As this new library management system will store
records under different files, so it will able to identify the type of users
and redirect the window location to their particular section were they are
bound to perform operations based on the available options for such category.
In this new system it will tell to the students and working staffs where the
particular book available if such book available under the library hall. It
will provide book location information in the format of book number, rack
number and row number. To make an interactive system graphics has been used to
display each section by which its users will able to identify easily and use it
as per their requirements.
