ABSTRACT
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.
1:INTRODUCTION
This chapter gives an overview about the aim , objectives ,background and operation
environment of the system.
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 isused.
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.
1.5 OPERATIONENVIRONMENT
2:SYSTEM ANALYSIS
In this chapter, we will discuss and analyze about the developing process of Library
Management System including software requirement specification (SRS) and
comparison between existing and proposed system . The functional and non functional
requirements are included in SRS part to provide complete description and overview of
system requirement before the developing process is carried out. Besides that, existing
vs proposed provides a view of how the proposed system will be more efficient than the
existing one.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Library Management System is a computerized system which helps
user(librarian) to manage the library daily activity in electronic format. It reduces
the risk of paper work such as file lost, file damaged and time consuming.
It can help user to manage the transaction or record more effectively and time-
saving.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The problem occurred before having computerized system includes:
Filelost
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.
File damaged When a computerized system is not there file is always lost due to
some accdent like spilling of water by some member on fileaccidentally.Besides
some natural disaster like floods or fires may also damage thefiles.
Difficult to searchrecord
When there is no computerized system there is always a difficulty in searching of
records if the records are large in number .
Spaceconsuming
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.
2.1.2 SYSTEMOBJECTIVES
Improvement in control andperformance
The system is developed to cope up with the current issues and problems of library
.The system can add user, validate user and is also bug free.
Savecost

2.3.1 Frontend
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 bedisplayed
in a web browser.HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting
of tags enclosed in angle brackets (like <html>), within the web page
content. HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like <h1>and </h1>,
although some tags represent empty elements and so are unpaired, for
example <img>. The first tag in a pair is the start tag, and the second tag is
the end tag (they are also called opening tags and closing tags). In between
these tags web designers can add text, further tags, comments and other
types of text-based content. The purpose of a web browser is to read HTML
documents and compose them into visible or audible web pages. The
browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the
content of the page.HTML elements form the building blocks of all websites.
HTML allows images and objects to be embedded and can be used to
create interactive forms. It provides a means to createstructured
documents by denoting structural semantics for text such as headings,
paragraphs, lists, links, quotes and other items. 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. While most often used to style web pages and interfaces written
in HTML and XHTML, the language can be applied to anykind
of XML document, including plain XML, SVG and XUL. 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
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 avariety
of proprietary agreements. MySQL was owned and sponsored by a single for-
profit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now owned by Oracle Corporation
.MySQL is a popular choice of database for use in web applications, and is a
central component of the widely used LAMP open source web application
software stack (and other 'AMP' stacks). LAMP is an acronym for "Linux, Apache,
MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python." Free-software-open source projects that require a
full-featured database management system often use MySQL. For commercial
use, several paid editions are available, and offer additional functionality.
Applications which use MySQL databases
include: TYPO3, MODx, Joomla, WordPress, phpBB, MyBB, Drupal and other
software. MySQL is also used in many high-profile, large-scale websites,
including Wikipedia, Google (though not for
searches), Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and YouTube

5SYSTEM
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.integrationtesting
UNIT TESTING
Unit testing is undertaken when a module has been created and succesfullyreviewed .In order to
test a single module we need to provide a complete environment ie besides the module we
wouldrequire
The procedures belonging to other modules that the module under testcalls
Non local data structures that moduleaccesses
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
6CONCLUSION & FUTURE
SCOPE
This website provides a computerized version of library management system which will benefit
the students as well as the staff of the library.
It makes entire process online where student can search books, staff can generate reports and do
book transactions. 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 fulfills each users
