Study Of Current System
The current Library system of D.B.J College works manually. This staff handles
the whole system. The system includes issuing and returning of books. The staff
keeps information of books, of student and of faculty members. The faculty
members are teacher and non-teaching staff. Also staffs have to keep
information about daily transaction of books.
In daily transaction process student demands for book in inquiry window. The
availability demanded book and gives book availability details to student. If book
is available, Librarian fills up book information and student information. If staff
demand for book then librarian fill up person information and issues book.
While returning book, librarian checks students data and check date of return. If
a faulty member wants to return books then librarian check person information
and accept book. If management wants to enter book, the book code is given by
itself.
At the end of year make a list of students who not return their books. This list
then submitted in College Office.
Shortcomings Of The Current System
The current system is manual and time consuming.
Appropriate entry in the register books, details of students may some times
miss out.
It is difficult to track down how many books are issued, how many of them are
returned.
It is tedious to find out person names who returned their books.
