 ABSTRACT

Library management system is a project which aims in developing a

computerized system to maintain all the daily work of library .This project
has many features which are generally not available in normal library
management systems like facility of user login and a facility of teachers
login .It also has a facility of admin login through which the admin can
monitor the whole system .It also has facility of an online notice board
where teachers can student can put up information about workshops or
seminars being held in our colleges or nearby colleges and librarian after
proper verification from the concerned institution organizing the seminar
can add it to the notice board . It has also a facility where student after
logging in their accounts can see list of books issued and its issue date
and return date and also the students can request the librarian to add
new books by filling the book request form. The librarian after logging
into his account i.e., admin account can generate various reports such as
student report, issue report, teacher report and book report Overall this
project of ours is being developed to help the students as well as staff of
library to maintain the library in the best way possible and also reduce
the human efforts.

INTRODUCTION

This chapter gives an overview about the aim , objectives ,background and
operation environment of the system.
1.1PROJECT AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
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 issue
 Request column for librarian for providing new books
 A separate column for digital library
 Student login page where student can find books issued by him/her and
date of return.
 A search column to search availability of books
 A teacher login page where teacher can add any events being organized in
the college and important suggestions regarding books.
 Online notice board about the workshop.

1.2BACKGROUND OF PROJECT
Library Management System is an application which refers to library
systems which are generally small or medium in size. It is used by librarian
to manage the library using a computerized system where he/she can
record various transactions like issue of books, return of books, addition of
new books, addition of new students etc.

Books and student maintenance modules are also included in this system
which would keep track of the students using the library and also a detailed
description about the books a library contains. With this computerized
system there will be no loss of book record or member record which
generally happens when a non-computerized system is used.

1
 In addition, report module is also included in Library Management System.
If user’s position is admin, the user is able to generate different kinds of
reports like lists of students registered, list of books, issue and return
reports.

All these modules are able to help librarian to manage the library with more
convenience and in a more efficient way as compared to library systems
which are not computerized.

2.1.4 SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

This section describes the software and hardware requirements of the

system
2.1.4.1 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
 Operating system- Windows 7 is used as the operating system as it is
stable and supports more features and is more user friendly
 Database MYSQL-MYSQL is used as database as it easy to maintain and
retrieve records by simple queries which are in English language which are
easy to understand and easy to write.
 Development tools and Programming language- HTML is used to write the
whole code and develop webpages with css, java script for styling work and
php for sever side scripting.

2.1.4.2 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

 2.3 SOFTWARE TOOLS USED
The whole Project is divided in two parts the front end and the back end.

2.3.1 Front end

The front end is designed using of html , Php ,css, Java script

 HTML- HTML or Hyper Text Markup Language is the main markup

language for creating web pages and other information that can be
displayed in a web browser.HTML is written in the form of HTML elements
consisting of tags enclosed in angle brackets (like), within the web page
content. HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like and, although some
tags represent empty elements and so are unpaired, for example Error!
Filename not specified.. It can embed scripts written in languages such as
JavaScript which affect the behavior of HTML web pages.

 CSS- Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for
describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup
language. CSS is a cornerstone specification of the web and almost all web
pages use CSS style sheets to describe their presentation.CSS is designed
primarily to enable the separation of document content from document
presentation, including elements such as the layout, colors, and fonts. This
separation can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and
control in the specification Library Management System Division Of
Computer Science And Engineering Page 17 of presentation characteristics,
enable multiple pages to share formatting, and reduce complexity and
repetition in the structural content (such as by allowing for table less web
design

 JAVA SCRIPT- JavaScript (JS) is a dynamic computer programming

language. It is most commonly used as part of web browsers, whose
implementations allow client-side scripts to interact with the user, control
the browser, communicate asynchronously, and alter the document
content that is displayed. It is also being used in server-side programming,
game development and the creation of desktop and mobile applications.
JavaScript is a prototype-based scripting language with dynamic typing and

1
 has firstclass functions. Its syntax was influenced by C. JavaScript copies
many names and naming conventions from Java, but the two languages are
otherwise unrelated and have very different semantics.

 PHP- PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web

development but also used as a general-purpose programming language.
PHP is now installed on more than 244 million websites and 2.1 million web
servers. Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1995, the reference
implementation of PHP is now produced by The PHP Group.

2.3.2 BACK END-

The back end is designed using my sql which is used to design the databases

MYSQL- MySQL ("My S-Q-L", officially, but also called "My Sequel") is (as of
July 2013) the world's second most widely used open-source relational
database management system (RDBMS). It is named after co-founder
Michael Widenius daughter, My. The SQL phrase stands for Structured
Query Language. The MySQL development project has made its source code
available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as well as
under a variety of proprietary agreements. MySQL was owned and
sponsored by a single forprofit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now
owned by Oracle Corporation . MySQL is also used in many high-profile,
large-scale websites, including Wikipedia, Google (though not for searches),
Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and YouTube

SYSTEM TESTING
The aim of the system testing process was to determine all defects in our
project. The program was subjected to a set of test inputs and various
observations were made and based on these observations it will be decided
whether the program behaves as expected or not. Our Project went through
two levels of testing
1.Unit testing
2.integration testing

UNIT TESTING
Unit testing is undertaken when a module has been created and successfully
reviewed. In order to test a single module, we need to provide a complete
environment ie besides the module we would require
 The procedures belonging to other modules that the module under test calls
 Non local data structures that module accesses
 A procedure to call the functions of the module under test with appropriate
parameters

Unit testing was done on each and every module that is described under
module description of chapter 4

INTEGRATION TESTING
In this type of testing, we test various integration of the project module by
providing the input. The primary objective is to test the module interfaces in
order to ensure that no errors are occurring when one module invokes the
other module.

 CHAPTER 6
CONCLUSION & FUTURE SCOPE

This website provides a computerized version of library management system

which will benefit the staff of the library. It makes entire process online where
student can search books. It also has a facility for student login where student
can login and can see status of books issued as well request for book or give
some suggestions. It has a facility of teacher’s login where teachers can add
lectures notes and also give necessary suggestion to library and also add info
about workshops or events happening in our college or nearby college in the
online notice board.

There is a future scope of this facility that many more features such as online
lectures video tutorials can be added by teachers as well as online assignments
submission facility , a feature Of group chat where students can discuss various
issues of engineering can be added to this project thus making it more
interactive more user friendly and project which fulfils each users need in the
best way possible
