I. Introduction
In the following section of this report, I will delve into the evaluation of the tools and
techniques used in the primary and secondary studies. The evaluation of these tools and techniques
is an important step in assessing the validity and reliability of the data gathered. The primary
research employed various data collection methods such as surveys, interviews, and questionnaires.
Additionally, various data analysis tools were used to analyze the data collected, such as SPSS and
Excel. On the other hand, the secondary research involved analyzing existing literature, reports, and
databases. The evaluation of these tools and techniques will provide a comprehensive view of the
research topic and enhance the credibility of the findings.

II. Analysis of study data (P5)
1. Roles and relationships between primary and secondary research
 Roles:
- Primary and secondary research serve different roles in the research process, and both are
important for generating valid and reliable research findings. The main roles of primary and
secondary research are as follows:
+ Primary research: Primary research plays a key role in collecting new data that is directly
relevant to the research questions. Primary research is typically conducted through various
methods, such as surveys, interviews, focus groups, experiments, and observations. The main
aim of primary research is to generate original data that can help answer the research
questions and fill gaps in existing knowledge.
+ Secondary research: Secondary research plays a complementary role to primary research by
providing context and background information on the research topic. Secondary research
involves reviewing and analyzing existing literature, reports, and databases to identify relevant
information that can help support or contextualize the primary research findings. The main aim
of secondary research is to provide a broader context for interpreting primary research
findings and to identify any gaps in knowledge that may need further exploration.
- Together, primary and secondary research can provide a comprehensive view of the research
topic, with primary research generating new data and secondary research providing context and
background information. The relationship between primary and secondary research is dynamic
and iterative, with the findings from one type of research informing and shaping the other. The
use of both primary and secondary research is essential for generating valid and reliable research
findings.
 Relationships between primary and secondary research:
- Primary and secondary research are interrelated and complementary approaches in the research
process. Both types of research have unique roles and responsibilities in generating valid and
reliable research findings. The relationship between primary and secondary research can be
described in the following ways:
+ Complementary: Primary and secondary research complement each other by providing
different types of information that contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the
research topic. Primary research generates new data that can answer specific research
questions, while secondary research provides contextual and background information on the
research topic.
+ Iterative: The relationship between primary and secondary research is iterative and cyclical,

Page | 6
 with findings from one type of research informing and shaping the other. For example, the
findings from secondary research can help identify knowledge gaps and inform the design of
primary research, while the findings from primary research can validate or contradict existing
theories and concepts in secondary research.
+ Interdependent: Primary and secondary research are interdependent, meaning that the quality
and reliability of one type of research can impact the other. For example, the quality of primary
research is affected by the validity and reliability of secondary research sources, while the
accuracy of secondary research is affected by the quality of primary research data.
- Overall, the relationship between primary and secondary research is dynamic and
multidimensional, and both types of research are necessary for generating valid and reliable
research findings. Researchers should be mindful of the interrelated and complementary nature of
primary and secondary research and use them in conjunction with each other to achieve the best
results.

2. Present and analyze results of primary and secondary studies
2.1. Primary research analysis
2.1.1. Qualitative research
According to the results of the interviews, Nguyen Van Troi High School is facing several
challenges related to library management. The current manual system of bookkeeping,
cataloging, and inventory management is time-consuming and prone to errors. As the number of
students and books continues to grow, the workload for library staff will increase, making it even
more difficult to manage the library effectively. To address these challenges, the school could
benefit from implementing library management software.

One of the main advantages of library management software is that it automates many of the
tasks that are currently done manually, such as cataloging, circulation, and inventory
management. This can significantly reduce the workload for library staff and free up time for
more important tasks, such as interacting with students and providing instructional support.

Library management software can also help to improve the accuracy and completeness of the
library catalog. By automating cataloging processes, the software can ensure that all books are
correctly labeled, categorized, and shelved, reducing the likelihood of lost or misplaced books. In
addition, the software can provide real-time data on book availability and location, making it
easier for students and staff to locate and borrow books.

Another advantage of library management software is that it can provide valuable data on library
usage and book circulation. By tracking circulation statistics, the software can help identify
popular books and areas of interest, which can inform collection development decisions. The
software can also generate reports on overdue books, fines, and other library usage metrics,
providing valuable data for school administrators and teachers.

Overall, the implementation of library management software could greatly improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of library operations at Nguyen Van Troi High School. By automating many of
the manual processes involved in library management, the software can free up time for staff,
improve accuracy and completeness of the library catalog, and provide valuable data on library
usage and book circulation.

2.1.2. Quantitative research results
In assignment 1, we did a survey on the library of Nguyen Van Troi high school for the purpose
of building the most suitable management software.

With the results obtained from the survey, we will analyze each result in order to come to the
most convincing conclusion.

Below is a breakdown of the survey results:

 Question 1

Figure 1. Survey Results Chart – Question 1

Based on the survey results, we can analyze as follows:

- The main users of the library are students from Nguyen Van Troi high school, with the rate up to
72.3%. This shows that the library plays a very important role in student learning and research.
- However, some teachers also use the library, with a rate of 17.7%. This shows that the library is
also a useful resource for teachers in teaching and research.
- 7.2% are former students using the library, indicating that the library is still useful to those who
have graduated and need access to materials for study or research.
- 2.8% are visitors to the library. Although this percentage is not large, it also shows that the library
is valuable and attracts the attention of some outsiders.
- In summary, the survey results show that the library of Nguyen Van Troi high school plays a very
important role in students' learning and research and is also useful for teachers and alumni.
Page | 9
- However, measures should be taken to increase the interest of other users such as visitors so that
the library can better serve the community as well as the school.

 Question 2

Figure 2. Survey Results Chart – Question 2

Page | 10
- Based on the survey results, it can be seen that the number of students from Nguyen Van Troi
High School who regularly visit the library is quite low, with only 25 out of 55 respondents going
to the library daily.
- Meanwhile, the number of students who come to the library every week and rarely come is also
insignificant, only accounting for a total of 14 and 6 people. With 11 people saying they never go
to the library, this percentage is also quite high.
- This result shows that the school library needs to make more efforts to attract students to use
library services. It may be necessary to increase promotion and introduction of new activities,
programs, and materials so that students are more motivated to visit the library. In addition, it is
necessary to improve the facilities and space of the library to create a better learning and
research environment.
- We can see how necessary a library management software is for students to easily access and
use the library regularly, thereby improving the quality of knowledge.

Page | 11
  Question 3

Figure 3. Survey Results Chart – Question 3

- Survey results about Nguyen Van Troi library show that library users appreciate the value of
books and expect to use the latest, diverse and quality materials. The library has a role to
support the learning of the community, providing a meeting, chatting and discussing space for
the user community, creating cohesion and helping the library become a cultural - educational
center - exchange. Libraries may also provide online information retrieval services and user
guides for using online resources.
 Based on the survey results, it can be concluded that library management software is necessary
because:
- Popularity of the purpose of borrowing books: more than half of the survey respondents
(51.9%) said that they go to the library to borrow books. This means that the library needs to
have an effective loan-return management system in place to ensure a smooth borrowing
process, without causing loss of books or violating the regulations on loan repayment
deadlines.
- Demand for information research: 12.2% of survey respondents use the library to search for
information. To meet this need, libraries need to provide users with a vast, up-to-date and well-
arranged repository of information. Library management software can assist libraries in
managing, replenishing and finding documents efficiently.
Page | 12
- Learning purpose: 21.9% of survey respondents go to the library to study. This shows that the
library should have a quiet study space and support professional learning. Library management
software can support the management of study programs, class schedules and classrooms in
the library.
- Need to exchange friends: 14% of survey respondents use the library to socialize with friends.
In this case, the library needs to provide users with a comfortable and friendly space where
they can chat, discuss and share knowledge. Library management software can help libraries
manage exchange activities, events and educational programs.
 Question 4

Page | 13
 Figure 4. Survey Results Chart – Question 4

- The survey results show that there is a difference in the user's assessment of the diversity of
documents in the Nguyen Van Troi library. More than half of those surveyed (26 out of 55)
rated the library as having "very diverse" materials, while 14 said the library was "diverse".
- However, there is also a small part of users (ie 6 people) that the library has only "normal"
diversity and 9 people rate the library as "low diversity". From that, it can be seen that there is
a difference in users' perception of the diversity of documents in the library.
- In order to improve the diversity of materials in the library, measures can be taken such as
increasing the purchase of new books, diversifying the types of books, increasing consulting
activities and guiding users in the selection of books. Select and search documents that suit
your needs.

 Question 5

Figure 5. Survey Results Chart – Question 5

- In a survey with 55 people about the library space of Nguyen Van Troi high school, we can see
that the overall assessment of the students about the library space is positive. However, there
are still some students who think that the space needs to be upgraded to better suit their needs.
- Specifically, most (53.2%) of the students said that the library space was very comfortable and
welcoming. This shows that the library space has created a pleasant and convenient learning
environment for students.
Page | 14
- However, there are some students (8.4%) that the library space is sometimes a bit noisy. This
may be due to some other students not following library rules or lack of library control.
- In addition, 13.2% of the students said that the library space needs to be further upgraded to
meet their needs. This may include providing additional materials, books and other resources,
enhancing amenities and services, or improving spaces to create a more productive learning
environment.
- Finally, 25.2% of students think that the library space is quite good. However, it is unclear if
these students expected more with the library space.
- In summary, based on the survey results, we can conclude that overall, the library space of
Nguyen Van Troi High School has created a comfortable and welcoming learning environment
for students. However, there are still some things that need to be improved to meet the needs of
the students.

 Question 6

Figure 6. Survey Results Chart – Question 6

- Based on a survey of 55 people about what kind of books they prefer to read at Nguyen Van
Troi high school's library, we can see that comic books are the most popular, while textbooks
are the least. more favored.
+ Specifically, more than half of the students (41.8%) said that they enjoy reading comic books.
Page | 15
 This shows that comic books are a popular type of book and can be attractive to students.
+ In addition, 30.3% of students said they enjoy reading reference books. This shows that
reference books are also a popular type of book among students at the library.
+ History books are also popular with 15.2% of students stating that they enjoy reading this type
of book. This suggests that some students have an interest in reading books about history and
can find relevant materials in the library.
+ Only 12.7% of students said they liked reading textbooks. This shows that textbooks are not a
popular type of book among students.
+ In summary, based on the survey results, we can conclude that comic books are the most
popular books in the library of Nguyen Van Troi high school, along with reference books and
history books. Textbooks are less popular. From these results, the library can devise strategies
to provide more material about the types of books that are popular with students to increase
the appeal and variety of the materials in the library.

  Question 8

Figure 8. Survey Results Chart – Question 8

- Based on the survey data, we can analyze and conclude the following about the library of
Nguyen Van Troi high school:
+ The total number of students borrowing books in the past month was 94 people, equivalent to
58.75% of the total 160 surveyed students.
+ There is a big difference in the number of students who borrowed books more than 3 books in
the past month in different blocks. Grade 12 has the largest number of students borrowing
books, with 52 people, followed by Grade 11 with 45 people, and Block 10 with 44 people.
+ The number of students who do not borrow books is relatively even across blocks. However, it
seems that the number of students who do not borrow books in grade 12 is significantly less
than in other blocks.
+ There are a number of students who have borrowed only one book in the past month, and the
number is fairly even across the blocks.
+ Based on the above survey results, we can see that the library of Nguyen Van Troi high school is
being used quite actively by students. However, attention is needed in grade 10 and students
have only borrowed one book in the past month to ensure that the library meets these
students' needs. In addition, it may be necessary to develop other services such as document
consulting to encourage students to borrow more books.

III. Meaningful conclusion (P6)

After the implementation of library management software in Nguyen Van Troi High School, it
has been observed that the software has had a significant impact on the efficiency of library
management. The software has provided a range of features that have made it faster, more
accurate and efficient.
One of the most important benefits of the software is its ability to reduce confusion and
prevent the loss of books. The software allows for a streamlined cataloging process, which
minimizes errors and ensures that all materials are accounted for. With a more organized and
efficient system in place, the librarians can easily locate and retrieve books, which enhances the
overall functionality of the library.
Moreover, the library management software has enabled the school to save time and reduce
costs. The software automates many of the processes associated with library management, such as
generating reports and tracking the circulation of books. As a result, librarians can devote more
time to other critical tasks and provide a better experience for students and staff.
The software has also enhanced transparency in the library management system. The
database includes accurate and up-to-date information on all the books, documents, and other
materials in the library. This means that students and teachers can quickly and easily find what
they are looking for, without having to search through stacks of books or paper files. This has
improved the overall learning experience for students, who can access the materials they need to
support their studies quickly and easily.
In addition, the software has improved the security and safety of the library. With the system's
ability to track the circulation of books, librarians can easily monitor which books are checked out
and who has them. This helps to prevent the theft or loss of books, and ensures that all materials
are accounted for.
In conclusion, the implementation of library management software has brought significant
improvements to Nguyen Van Troi High School's library. The software has helped to enhance the
overall efficiency of the library, improve transparency and convenience in information retrieval,
and increase safety and security. By streamlining and automating many of the processes
associated with library management, the school has been able to provide a better experience for
students and staff alike.

2.4. Apply Trello in my project

 Trello
- Trello is an online project management tool used to organize tasks and track work progress. It
allows users to create boards, lists, and cards to manage tasks and track their progress.

 Advantage of
Trello:
- Ease of use: Trello
has a simple and
intuitive interface,
allowing users to
easily create, sort, and manage cards and lists.
- Multi-platform: Trello is available on multiple platforms, including web, desktop, and mobile
apps.
- Suitable for small projects: Trello is a flexible project management tool and suitable for small
projects with fewer members.
 Disadvantage of trello:
- Limited for large projects: Trello may not be suitable for large and complex projects with
many members and complex tasks.
- Lack of time management features: Trello does not provide many time management features,
including a calendar and time tracking feature.
- No strong programming interaction: Trello lacks a powerful programming interaction (API)
feature to integrate with other tools.
 The role of Trello is to help users efficiently manage tasks and track their progress. It provides
users with a means to organize and assign tasks, while improving interaction and
understanding among project members.

2.5. Apply GIT in my project

 Git
- GIT is a distributed version control system used for software development. It allows
developers to track changes in source code, collaborate on projects, and manage code
branches.

Figure : Git

Advantages
- Distributed architecture: Each developer has a full copy of the codebase, which provides
redundancy and allows for offline work.
- Branching and merging: GIT makes it easy to create and manage code branches, which enables
parallel development and experimentation without affecting the main codebase.
- Speed: GIT is designed to be fast, which makes it ideal for large projects and frequent commits.
 Disadvantages
- Steep learning curve: GIT has a complex command-line interface and requires a solid
understanding of version control concepts, which can be a challenge for new users.
- File size limitations: GIT is not well-suited for managing large binary files or media assets, as
these can quickly bloat the repository size.
- Collaboration issues: While GIT allows for collaboration, it can sometimes lead to conflicts and
requires a process for resolving them.
 The role of GIT is to provide developers with a tool for version control and collaboration that
allows them to work together effectively and track changes to their code over time. GIT has
become a popular choice for software development teams due to its flexibility, speed, and

monitoring system through the use of a project log. This system has enabled me to keep track of
the progress made, identify potential roadblocks, and take corrective measures to ensure the
timely completion of the project.
Throughout the course of this project, I have gained valuable experience and insights into the
tools and techniques used in this field. I have evaluated these tools and techniques in-depth, and
have determined which ones are most effective for achieving the desired outcome.
Moreover, I have also evaluated my own project implementation, including the challenges I
faced and the strategies I used to overcome them. I am pleased to report that the project has been
successful and has achieved its objectives.
In conclusion, this project has been an enriching experience, and I am confident that the
knowledge and skills gained from it will be useful in future endeavors. The insights gained from
this project will also serve as a valuable resource for others in this field.
