of the system.
1.1 PROJECT AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The project aims and objectives that will be achieved after completion of this project are discussed
in this subchapter. The aims and objectives are as follows:
* Online book issue
+ Request column for librarian for providing new books
A separate column for digital library
Student login page where student can find books issued by him/her and date of retum. 0
A search column to search availability of books
A teacher login page where teacher can add any events being organized in the college
and important suggestions regarding books.
Online notice board about the workshop.1.2 BACKGROUND OF PROJECT.
Library Management System is an application which refers to library systems which are
generally small or medium in size. It is used by librarian to manage the library using a
computerized system where he/she can record various transactions like issue of books, return of
books, addition of new books, addition of new students etc.
Books and student maintenance modules are also included in this system which would keep track
of the students using the library and also a detailed description about the books a library
contains. With this computerized system there will be no loss of book record or member record
which generally happens when a non computerized system is used
In addition, report module is also included in Library Management System. If user’s position is
admin, the user is able to generate different kinds of reports like lists of students registered, list
of books, issue and return reports.
All these modules are able to help librarian to manage the library with more convenience and in
‘a more efficient way as compared to library systems which are not computerized1.8 OPERATION ENVIRONMENT

2.1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Library Management System is a computerized system which helps
user(librarian) to manage the library daily activity in electronic format. It reduces
the risk of paper work such as file los, file damaged and time consuming. It can
help user to manage the transaction or record more effectively and timesaving.
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
The problem occurred before having computerized system includes:
+ File lost
When computerized system is not implemented file is always lost because of human
environment.Some times due to some human error there may be a loss of records.
File damaged When a computerized system is not there file is always lost due to
some accdent like spilling of water by some member on file accidentally.Besides
some natural disaster like floods or fires may also damage the files.
Difficult to search recordWhen there is no computerized system there is always a difficulty in searching of
records if the records are large in number
Space consuming
After the number of records become large the space for physical storage of file and
records also increases if no computerized system is implemented.
Cost consuming
As there is no computerized system the to add each record paper will be needed
which will increase the cost for the management of library.
2.1.2 SYSTEM OBJECTIVES
+ Improvement in control and performance

2.3. SOFTWARE TOOLS USED
The whole Project is divided in two parts the front end and the back end.
2.3.1 Front end
The front end is designed using of html , Php ,css, Java script
+ HTML- HTML or Hyper Text Markup Language is the main markup
language for creating web pages and other information that can be displayed
in a web browser.HTML is written in the form of HTML elements consisting of
tags enclosed in angle brackets (like ), within the web page content.
HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like
and
, although
some tags represent empty elements and so are unpaired, for example
. The first tag in a pair is the start tag, and the second tag is the end
tag (they are also called opening tags and closing tags). In between these
tags web designers can add text, further tags, comments and other types of
text-based content. The purpose of a web browser is to read HTML
documents and compose them into visible or audible web pages. The
browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the
content of the page.HTML elements form the building blocks of all websites.
HTML allows images and objects to be embedded and can be used to create
interactive forms. It provides a means to create structured documents by
denoting structural semantics for text such as headings, paragraphs, lists,
links, quotes and other items. It can embed scripts written in languages such
as JavaScript which affect the behavior of HTML web pages.
+ CSS- Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for
describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markuplanguage. While most often used to style web pages and interfaces written in
HTML and XHTML, the language can be applied to any kind of XML
document, including plain XML, SVG and XUL. CSS is a cornerstone
specification of the web and almost all web pages use CSS style sheets to
describe their presentation. CSS is designed primarily to enable the
separation of document content from document presentation, including
elements such as the layout, colors, and fonts. This separation can improve
content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification
of presentation characteristics, enable multiple Pages to share formatting,
and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content (such as by
allowing for table less web design).CSS can also allow the same markup
Page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such
as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser
or screen reader) and on Braille-based, tactile devices. It can also be used to
allow the web page to display differently depending on the screen size or
device on which it is being viewed. While the author of a document typically
links that document to a CSS file, readers can use a different style sheet,
perhaps one on their own computer, to override the one the author has
‘specified. However if the author or the reader did not link the document to a
specific style sheet the default style of the browser will be applied. CSS
specifies a priority scheme to determine which style rules apply if more than
one rule matches against a particular element. In this so-called cascade,
priorities or weights are calculated and assigned to rules, so that the results
are predictable.
JAVA SCRIPT- JavaScript (JS) is a dynamic computer programming
language. It is most commonly used as part of web browsers, whose
implementations allow client-side scripts to interact with the user, control the
browser, communicate asynchronously, and alter the document content that
is displayed. It is also being used in server-side programming, game
development and the creation of desktop and mobile applications. JavaScript
is a prototype-based scripting language with dynamic typing and has
firstclass functions. Its syntax was influenced by C. JavaScript copies many
names and naming conventions from Java, but the two languages are
otherwise unrelated and have very different semantics. The key designprinciples within JavaScript are taken from the Self and Scheme
programming languages. It is a multiparadigm language, supporting object-
oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles. The application of
JavaScript to use outside of web pages—for example, in PDF documents,
site-specific browsers, and desktop widgets—is also significant. Newer and
faster JavaScript VMs and platforms built upon them (notably Node js) have
also increased the popularity of JavaScript for server-side web applications.
On the client side, JavaScript was traditionally implemented as
an interpreted language but just-in-time compilation is now performed by
recent (post-2012) browsers.
PHP- PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development
but also used as a general-purpose programming language. PHP is now
installed on more than 244 million websites and 2.1 million web servers.
Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1995, the reference implementation
of PHP is now produced by The PHP Group. While PHP originally stood for
Personal Home Page, it now stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, a
recursive backronym.PHP code is interpreted by a web server with a PHP
processor module, which generates the resulting web page: PHP commands
can be embedded directly into an HTML source document rather than calling
an extemal file to process data. It has also evolved to include a command-
line interface capability and can be used in standalone graphical
applications. PHP is free software released under the PHP License. PHP can
be deployed on most web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost
every operating system and platform, free of charge.
2.3.2. BACK END- The back end is designed using mysql which is _used to design the
databases,
> MYSQL- MySQL ("My S-Q-L", officially, but also called "My Sequel") is (as of July
2013) the world's second most widely used open-source relational database
management system (RDBMS). It is named after co-founder Michael Widenius
daughter, My. The SQL phrase stands for Structured Query Language. The
MySQL development project has made its source code available under the terms.
of the GNU General Public License, as well as under a variety of proprietary
agreements. MySQL was owned and sponsored by a single forprofit firm, thety 4h 4s
yy
Swedish company MySQL AB, now owned by Oracle Corporation MySQL is a
Popular choice of database for use in web applications, and is a central
component of the widely used LAMP open source web application software stack
(and other ‘AMP’ stacks). LAMP is an acronym for "Linux, Apache, MySQL,
Per/PHP/Python." Free-software-open source projects that require a full-featured
database management system often use MySQL. For commercial use, several
paid editions are available, and offer additional functionality.
Applications which use MySQL databases
include: TYPO3, MODx, Joomla, WordPress, phpBB, MyBB, Drupal and other
software. MySQL is also used in many high-profile, large-scale websites,
including Wikipedia, Google (though not for searches), Facebook, Twitter,
Flickr, and YouTube{HAPTER 3
