Features Of School Library Management System

section-heading

1 Catalog Management

The system keeps a track of what books are available in the library and helps in easy search and retrieval whenever required. Catalog enables search and book reservation. It permits search and reserving of books from any place and time. Also, cataloging of audio, print, and video media is possible, including books, magazines, journals, CDs, DVDs, and photographs. It further enables uploading of bibliographic data.

2Book Management

The software keeps a track of books which have been borrowed and issued for a specific number of days. The location of any book at any point of time can be easily tracked. Missing books can be easily traced with this software. Also, the details on books to be returned and those which are overdue for return can be checked easily. The books can be cataloged by subject, title, date of publishing, thus making it easier to keep a track.

3 Barcodes

Barcode scanning is done by assigning a UIN number to each book which can be read electronically by a scanner. The barcode on books helps in their easy identification. All books are barcoded on the basis of topic, subject, and date of publishing. Each book’s barcode is linked to a unique entry in the database which is updated automatically when the books are scanned while issuing or returning.

4Online Access

Students need not visit the library to access the books as the web-based software offers online access to books especially during a pandemic like scenario. Students can easily search for e-resources, books, and journals from anywhere and need not be confined to the library premises. With an advanced search option, students can have direct electronic access to the books.

5 Fee Management

The institute can manage bills from students and vendors. Also, you can manage individual student accounts and collect membership fees. The system can calculate the fine due for non-return or damaged books and for delays in returning of books, by automatically counting days from the due date. The students are notified regarding the fine and can pay the dues and get access to the library's resources.

6High Security

Ensures high safety and security of the book information and student data. The security functionality enables the admin to restrict access to confidential books and records. The RFID AntiTheft Portal is placed at the exit of the library which tracks books up to 3 meters range and would trigger the alarm with red flashlights when a student exits the library with an unissued book.
