Title: Library Management System for ISU - Roxas Campus

Researchers: Divine L. Cabral, Liezel B. Mata, Vanessa R. Reyes

Rationale: This project is concerned with developing a Library Management System for ISU - Roxas Campus in
order to make library management more efficient and easy to handle. The Library Management
System enables a fully automated library service. It has the ability to display the details of the books
available in various departments. The system helps both students and library manager to keep a
constant track of all the books available in the library. It allows both the admin and the student to
search for the desired book. It becomes necessary for colleges to keep a continuous check on the
books issued and returned. This system reduces manual work to a great extent allows smooth flow of
library activities. The system excludes the use of paper work by managing all the book information
electronically. The system has books well organized and systematically arranged in the system so that
user can easily search and find the book. It saves human efforts and resources.The goals of this
project are to provide simplicity as well as security and efficiency to the management and also to
reduce managing personnel in the library.
