ABSTRACT
Automated library stock management system is software that allows you to search for books, manage books and monitor borrowed books, pay fines and fees all in one location. It helps the librarian manage books and books borrowed by members while also automating the bulk of library functions. It improves efficiency, lowers library maintenance expenses, and saves both the user and the librarian time and effort. The goal of this project is to provide a system for handling all information about the Librarian, the students and catalogs such as books, magazines, and newspapers. I was motivated to embark on this research because of the current manual library operations, services and transactions, difficulty in locating books in the library, the internet usage duration is restricted and the available system is not known by most of the students. The system was achieved by developing a platform for an automated application for library stock management system, build a database structure that holds the records of the staff and students including the visitors, create a module for user login, design a platform that add user’s information, design a platform that add books, design a platform that displays and view user’s information. The library management system will improve services for both users e.g., students and library management system will enhance services for both users - e.g., students and staff- e.g., librarians such as shortening the time it takes to find books and increasing the accuracy and timeliness of record generation, among other things. This research was realized through the adoption of primary and secondary sources of data collection which includes interview, observation, questionnaire, the internet, journals and the adoption of prototype methodology. The system is implemented by using PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript in the development of the web application and MYSQL as the database.
