Introduction Introduction
Borrowing books, returning books or viewing the available books
at the Library of the local Universities currently done manually
where in the student has go to the Library and check the available
books at the Library. .Students check the list of books available
and borrow the books if the book is a borrow otherwise it is of
waste for the student to come to the library to come to check for
the books if the student doesnt get the book. The objective of this
Bachelor thesis is to develop a web-based library management system
based on (Html, Css, PHP, MySQL) in order to reduce the cost of
management and make it convenient for the user. This system used by
members who may be students or professors of this University to
check the availability of the books and borrow the books, and by
the librarian to update the databases.PRESENT MANUAL SYSTEMOffline
or manual library management Is not easy to implement in manual
library management system there is too much paper work this paper
work takes too much time and can be damaged easily and there is no
back up record there is also database desktop applications are
available that application needs special requirements and also
desktop application can also be very easily damaged by
virus.Problem of the present system
Some of other problems being faced in manual system are as
Follows:
Fast report generation is not possible.
Tracing a book is difficult.
Information about issue/return of the books are not properly
maintained.
No central database can be created as information is not
available in database.

Notepade++5.) Assumptions This application is used to convert
the manual System to the online application.

specific training is required.Assumptions and dependencies The
users have sufficient knowledge of computers. The University
computer should have Internet connection and Internet server
capabilities. The users know the English language, as the user
interface will be provided in English The product can access the
university student database.Reliability
The system has to be very reliable due to the importance of data
and the damages incorrect orincomplete data can do.
Availability
The system is available 100% for the user and is used 24 hours a
day and 365 days a year. The systemshall be operational 24 hours a
day and 7 days a week.
Feasibility StudyIn feasibility study phase we had undergone
through various
steps which are describe as under :
1. Identify the origin of the information at different
stages.
2. Identify the expectation of user from computerized
system.
3. Analyze the draw back of existing system (manual) system.
