Online Library Management System
1. Introduction
Borrowing books, returning books or viewing the available books at the library of
the local Library & other libraries is currently done manually where in the User has
to go to the library and check the available books at the library. Users check the listof books available and borrow the books if the book is a borrow book otherwise it
is of waste for the User to come to the library to come to check for the books if the
User doesnt get the book. Then the librarian checks the User id and allows the
member to check out the book and the librarian then updates the member database
and also the books database. This takes at least one to two hours if the member is
available at the nearby place otherwise it may take more time.
We have decided to investigate the use of an online library management system.
This system would be used by members who may be Users or professors of that
Library to check the availability of the books and borrow the books, and by thelibrarian to update the databases. The purpose of this document is to analyze and
elaborate on the high-level needs and features of the online library system. It
focuses on the capabilities and facilities provided by a library. The details of what
all are the needs of the online library system and if it fulfils these needs are
detailed in the use-case and supplementary specifications.
1.1 Purpose
The purpose ofSoftware Requirements Specification (SRS) document is to
describe the external Behaviour of the Online Library System. RequirementsSpecification defines and describes the Operations, interfaces, performance, and
quality assurance requirements of the Online Library System. The document also
describes the non functional requirements such as the user interfaces. It also
Describes the design constraints that are to be considered when the system is to be
designed, and other Factors necessary to provide a complete and comprehensive
description of the requirements for the Software. The Software Requirements
Specification (SRS) captures the complete software Requirements for the system,
or a portion of the system. Requirements described in this document are Derived
from the Vision Document prepared for the Online Library System.
1.2 Scope
The Software Requirements Specification captures all the requirements in a single
document. The Online Library System that is to be developed provides the
members of the Library and employees of The library with books information,

Online Library Management System
online blocking of books and many other facilities. The Online Library System is
supposed to have the following features.
The product provides the members with online blocking of books capabilities and
the Online Library System is up and running all day.
The system provides logon facility to the users.
The system provides the members with the option to check their account and/or
change their Options like password of the account whenever needed all through the
day during the library Hours.
The system allows the members to block the books 24 hours a day and all the
through the Semester.
The system lets the library staff to check which all members have blocked the
books and Whether they can borrow any more books or not.
The system allows the Librarian to create the books catalog, add/delete books and
maintain The books catalog. The system updates the billing system as and when the member borrows or
returns a book.
The book catalog is automated and the decision of offering the book based on the
category of
The book is automatically decided.
We also have an order department, which manages to add or remove a book from
the Library.
The features that are described in this document are used in the future phases of the
software Development cycle. The features described here meet the needs of all the
users. The success criteria of The system are based in the level up to which the
features described in this document are implemented In the system.
1.3 Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations
This subsection should provide the definitions of all terms, acronyms, and abbreviations
required to properly interpret the SRS. This information may be provided by reference to one or
more appendixes in the SRS or by reference to other documents.
1.4 References
This subsection should:(1) Provide a complete list of all documents referenced elsewhere in the SRS, or in a separate,
specified document.
(2) Identify each document by title, report number - if applicable - date, and publishing
organization.
(3) Specify the sources from which the references can be obtained.
This information may be provided by reference to an appendix or to another document.

1.5 Overview
The SRS will provide a detailed description of the Online Library System. This
document will provide the outline of the requirements, overview of the
characteristics and constraints of the system.
2. General Description
This section of the SRS should describe the general factors that affect 'the product and its
requirements. It should be made clear that this section does not state specific requirements; it
only makes those requirements easier to understand.
2.1 Product Perspective
The Online Library System is a package to be used by Libraries to improve the
efficiency of Librarians, Library employees and Users. The Online Library System
to be developed benefits Greatly the members and the Librarian of Universities andLibrarian of Schools. The system provides books catalog and information to
members and helps them decide on the books to borrow from the library. The
Librarian can keep the books catalog updated all the time so that the members
(Users and the professors) get the updated information all the time.
The complete overview of the system is as shown in the overview diagram below:
The product to be developed has interactions with the users: Librarian, Members
who are the Users and Teachers of Schools & Colleges.

Online Library Management System
2.2 Product Functions
The Online Library System provides online real time information about the books
available in the Library and the user information. The Product functions are moreor less the same as described in the product perspective. The functions of the
system include the system providing different type of services based on the type of
users [User/Librarian/Staff].
The member should be provided with the updated information about the books
catalog.
Provisions for the members to borrow the books they want, if all the other
required rules hold good.
The member is given a provision to check his account information and change the
account information any time in the given valid period.
The members are provided with the books available roster and allowed to choose
the books, which they want to use in the coming up days.
The librarian can get the information about the members who have borrowed or
returned the books.
The librarian is provided with interfaces to add/delete the books available in the
book catalog.
The members when complete the book borrowing or returning process, the due to
be paid by the member must be calculated and the information about the member
and the due amount is sent to the Library billing system.
The system uses the Library information security requirements to provide thelogin facility to the users.
2.3 User Characteristics
The users of the system are members, librarian of the Library and the
administrators who maintain the system. The members and the librarian are
assumed to have basic knowledge of the computers and Internet browsing. The
administrators of the system to have more knowledge of the internals of the system
and is able to rectify the small problems that may arise due to disk crashes, power
failures and other catastrophes to maintain the system. The proper user interface,users manual, online help and the guide to install and maintain the system must be
sufficient to educate the users on how to use the system without any problems.
2.4 General Constraints
The information of all the users must be stored in a database that is accessible by
the Online Library System.

submittal. The system shall be allowed to take more time when doing large
processing jobs. Administrators/librarians response the system shall take as less
time as possible to provide service to the administrator or the librarian.
3.5.1.2 Throughput
