Problem in Brief
Many library systems are operated manually by group of people. In such situations manypeople involved in the process of managing the library such a way that to keep recordsregarding the books & students (borrowers), check the books manually, keep records onissued books etc. all these things have to be carried out manually & if the library is large incontent handling is also a problem. On the other hand keeping large amount of maintenanceworkers may cost a lot & it will not be efficient for a library. Manual record keeping is alsonot a reliable method as people tend to forget things.On the borrower
’s
point of view, in manual system borrower can’t find a book exactly at
once as they are not ordered well. Sometimes user might be searching for a book that is notavailable in the library in such situations people get annoyed or depressed. Therefore thereshould be a reliable way to manage the library system.

To achieve the aims & objectives of this project, the main thing is to identify the mainfeatures that involved in the system. In this scenario, there are three types of users; they areadministrator, librarian & borrowers. All these users should be able to login to the systemwith separate logins. New users can be registered only under administrative concern. Adatabase is there to store the user details & book details. This information can be retrieved bythe users as per their privilege. Anyone can search the system using given specifications &
the availability of the books are updated by the librarian immediately. So there won’t be
