ABSTRACT  This project is aimed at developing an

Library Management System for the college library.

 This system can be used to search for books,

Issue/Renewal books, Fine generation etc..,

This is one integrated system that contains student and administrator modules.

INTRODUCTION The mission of the Library Management System

Project is to create an integrated information about the books for members and administration.

There are registered people in the system (students, Administrator et al). Each one of them may have some exclusive privileges.

The Home page is provided with links to connect ADMINISTRATOR/STUDENT modules in the system.

The cost of the System is economical and it is developed within the required time.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTSHARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

Processor: Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent

RAM: Minimum of 256 MB or higher

HDD: 20 GB or higher

Monitor: 15’’ or 17’’ color monitor

SOFTWARESOFTWARE REQUIREMENTSREQUIREMENTS Front-end:J2EE (JSP, HTML, JavaScript)

Back-end: Oracle 9i or higher

Server: Apache Tomcat 5.5

Operating system: Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP

Browser: Microsoft Internet Explorer or any other

EXISTING SYSTEMBy using present system, work is done manually. So all

transactions takes lot of time to complete.

If the information is maintained manually the process becomes much complicated and difficult for understanding and retrieval

of information.

Student cannot interact directly with system. He can only interact with administrator.

PROPOSED SYSTEMThis system is a completely computerized one.

Books Information can be retrieved easily by using search operations, Which is not possible in a manual system.

Student can directly interact with system and can check the status of the books borrowed by him and the respective due dates and other relevant details by entering his/her Register no.

MODULES:

TESTINGTesting is process of executing program with the intent of

finding an error

Testing is the phase where errors remaining from the earlier phase are also detected.

In this the program to be tested is executed with a set of test cases and the output of the program for the test case is evaluated to determine whether the program is performing as it is expected to do.

TEST CASE When invalid characters are included in any

of the fields while entering details. Expected Result System should not accept the details entered

and display an appropriate error message.• Observed Result The system displayed the message and the

user is prompted to reenter the details.

• Test Case When an invalid UserID or Password are

given • Expected Result System should display an error message

followed by a screen to re-enter the id or password

• Observed Result The system displayed the message and the

screen to re-enter the details.

Test Case When required fields are not entered. Expected Result System should identify the fields and display

an appropriate error message Observed Result The system displayed the appropriate error

message.

The entire implemented system mainly demonstrates the concept of a library management system.

The developed system perfectly met all the objectives conceived at the design phase of the system.

This project helps the user from avoiding the manual stress in maintaining the records.

No system is always perfect or complete and there is scope for further development.
