A Digital Library Management System is developed to manage issuing library books, journals, etc. using a fully automated workflow where the entire record set of books/journals movement can be tracked with ‘To whom it was issued’, ‘Due date of return’.
Notifications may be incorporated in the workflow using which the issuer is notified regarding the date of return of an issued book. Similarly, if a book is not returned on proper time, the librarian is notified regarding the issue.
Provision is made for uploading and reading the e-books through the system itself (provided e-book is already available in some media), where the librarian can set the privilege of reading the book to the desired users.
