Overall Description

Modern Libraries are not made up of just Books but CD ROM’s, Articles, Project
Reports, Bound volumes are substantial part of the holding, Managing the holdings
manually is a not a simple job. There are few solutions but many a times, we find
ourselves "making them works" by finding "ways to work around" system inadequacies.
Moreover we have limited staff resources, these "work around" waste time, effort, and
skills that should be spent on user services.
Many solutions do not keep up with the technological changes and hence prove to be
time wasters.

individual Libraries. You can store the information about the books and other material
and control the movement of the same.
