ABSTRACT

'

'

In this project we discuss the establishment of a website for Taibah

University. We called it Taibah University Digital Library (TUDL).
TUDL is aimed for Instructors, Teaching Members, Students and
Employees. This site allows students to download Taibah University
related books, course slides, specific abbreviation of courses and
related materials. The motivation was that, in Taibah University we
dont have e-library serves for Taibah University specific courses and
its related materials.
The project site will be implemented in the following stages, the first
stage is Analysis and planning, it includes motivation and project
domain in addition to an extensive study of related digital libraries.
The second stage is initiation &project organization; it includes
assumptions and risks analysis and planning of the design
incentives which is included in the design phase of the project. The
third stage is analysis and design; it includes the requirements
gathering especially functional requirements. TUDL proposal has
great impact and positive feedback from both students and teaching
members.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
In view of the development of the Information technologies and the
expansion of electronic information and cognitive development, we
need to an electronic library in Taibah university [TUDL] dedicated to
the its related course materials, which makes it easy for students
and beneficiaries to access courses online resources instead of
going to traditional libraries.
In this study we are trying to create an electronic library linking all
electronic information related to students, courses and the related
materials.
1.2 PROJECT DOMAIN
This project aims to create a website as an Electronic library
dedicated for Taibah University related courses and materials. The
site can be used by Taibah university students to download books to
their PCs, also it can be used by the doctors to upload the electronic
materials. The books are downloaded from the site as PDF files.
MOTIVATION 1.3
One of the motivational styles to researcher and students is easy
access for electronic resources. Currently no electronic library in
Taibah University dedicated for course materials. The library support
free resources and materials that student need. There is a section
for stories and novels to help students to spend their free time in
something fun and useful.

14

PROBLEM DEFINITION 1.4

There are many problems that students in Taibah university face,

one of them is no library in the university provides students with
resources they need as books and programs for that we establish
this digital library.
OBJECTIVE 1.5

In this project we introduce a site collecting study materials in

Taibah University. The aim of this project is help students to obtain
materials and books which they need as soon as possible with easy
way, these books will help students in their study. This library will
help to make several information and resources available for
students.

METHODOLOGY USED 1.6

We have adopted Waterfall model shown in Figure 1.1 for our project
phases, namely Requirements, Design, Implementation, Verification
and Maintenance. An explanation of each phase will be introduced.

Figure1.1 waterfall model steps

1.6.1 Requirements
The following requirements are collected in the initiation of the
project.
Hardware: devices and tools for convert sources from
traditional form to electronic form such as desktop computer
with supporting accessories, scanner and storage media.
Software: e-books such as PDF files, programs, scanning
software, Photoshop, Microsoft office programs.
Internet Connection such as modem with high speed
connection to upload files.
Database: to store data and retrieve it.

15

Human: who understand the requirement of the users and

library's content.
Budget : buy books , employees salary , training cost, etc.

1.6.2 Design
The design is done by using Unified Modeling Language (UML). Use
Cases, Decision Trees, Entity Relationship models and Data Flow
Diagram are used in the design phase of the project. As an example
a comprehensive Data Flow Diagram for the Taibah University
Library Website is shown in Figure 1.2.

Figure1.2 UML Dataflow Diagram

1.6.3 Implementation
Implementation of the project is done By using ASP.NET with the
supplementary .NET frame work. The database design is used by
using SQL server. Crystal reports are used as tool to make site
reports. In implementation PC for each member is needed with
windows and Microsoft Office. Internet connection will be needed to
keep updated with the latest implementation technologies.

16

1.6.4 Verification
We make the test by view, download and add books. We establish a
trial version of the site so users can login and download books by
testing download functionality and user registration and other

related functions. Login and search functions will be tested by

volunteer students.
1.6.5 Maintenance
Make for every month period in regard to the needs of the students
in Taibah University.

17

CHAPTR TWO
PROJECT INITIATION & PLANNING
We will discuss in this chapter Project Organization which include
several stages (First stage: preparation and processing, Second stage:
implementation and delivery of the project,

PROJECT ORGANIZATION 2.1

First Stage: Preparation and Processing 2.1.1
The prepare phase is the most important .This stage includes all
project milestones, we study all feedback from users (Taibah
university students) in various levels, we study also the sources of
information, how to retrieve information, how to determine the type
of hardware, software and accessories, size quantities. In addition to
the management and supervision of electronic library, such as,
training of human cadre. At the end of this phase we provide a plan
for the implementation phase.
2.1.2 Second Stage: Implementation Of the Project
This stage includes the requirements and needs such as
Devices: this include a number of modern computer systems,
scanners, communications to link local network, also include server
with large capacity to accommodate large amount of information.
Programming
systems
:
include
electronic
information
management and retrieval link protocols and programs, language
programs such as C# and SQL servers are adopted for
implementation. Programs should be modern depending on the
latest standards and techniques required to manage the library of
Taibah University.
Human : shall be technically qualified and capable of dealing with
hardware, software support services, maintenance and training.
Good training of human should begin before the building electronic
library. They should be working in Taibah University to communicate
with students in the colleges and record their requirements.
Electronic sources: include books, files electronic, and optical
disks. Electronic library needs a special system for electronic
publishing, content management, and preservation of the rights of
the property.

18

To ensure the continuity of the work of the electronic library we

should caring by the
subject of technical support and maintenance of systems and
software in the library
of the university .
2.1.3 Third Stage: Operating the Service
During this stage, test all components of electronic library (TUDL) in
Taibah University, including the service provided and level, speed,
accuracy. While testing, we check hardware, software and the
required modifications. If the testing was successfully achieved the
students and faculty member aspirations, we operate the service
.This includes the need for training employees in TUDL.
We must make an assessment of TUDL in terms of the extent of
achieving its objectives, content, and services and the level of
quality and the size of the benefit, so that we can subsequently
develop it to satisfy students and faculty members In Taibah
University.
2.2 SCOPE
In the last few years, the digital libraries have spread in all over the
world . Many organizations, companies and universities established
their own digital libraries or electronic libraries to offer for their
customers or students easy access to the resources they need .
We should know about digital library that:
1- Working in digital library needs collecting between admin skills
and knowledge of using computer and network systems and
information.
2- Not independent library and it is similar to traditional library in
resources and services but in e-library we process its functions
and operation automatically.
3- It does not need to big space to store resources and software.
4- It has a lot of materials that converted from printed or traditional
form to electronic media by using scanner. So we can store and
retrieval them later.
Students in Taibah University experimented the difficulty of reaching
the information and getting suitable resources. So, we decide to
help students in our university and faculty member.

19

This library will initially contains e-books and some programs that
any student in Taibah University needs
Before we establish our project we should focus on:
1- Database: collecting stored data with software for retrieval and
edit it.
2- Downloading: the way that enable user to get resources.
3- Electronic resources: documents in electronic form.
4- E-library services: either supplied from local servers or
accessible via networks.
2.3 CONSTRAINTS
While the number of people who use e-library increasing, the
number of constrains that library put on the books also increase.
Some distributer refuses to sell books for e-library and other selling
it for very expensive.
Printing and publishing rights this is another constrain we should put
in mind, where some publishing company does not allow use its
books without Permission.
2.4 FEASIBILITY
2.4.1 Operational Feasibility
The project will meet the admission of students and faculty
members because there is no traditional library and have easy
access to books from the library and read books, there is a great
benefit for the students and faculty of the establishment of the
electronic library to download the books from the site this is easy for
them because it is in a good university library is not available, it
comfortable to them instead of resorting to traditional libraries and
loss of time. In addition, potential problems in the system unable to
connect to the network and meet my faculty member and the
student tease fuse of the site and download books, also easy to get
used it instead of resorting to traditional offices easy access to
books and information through the creation of electronic library
achieves student satisfaction and faculty member.

20

2.4.2 Technical feasibility

The technique used to build electronic library process and supported

by faculty and student members, it is a modern technology for easy

access to information, the members of the team has sufficient
experience in c ++ and this experience will help in the construction
of the project and it is sufficient to create a virtual library.
And implementation phases suitable because it has emplaced
according to planned systematically studied.

2.5 ASSUMPTIONS
Suppose that the digital library for Taibah University's students of
the Department of computer Science and Engineering at various
levels and all branches.
DO you have unlimited access?
The user of e-library does not need to move in the library .accessing
to the digital library is available for all over the world whenever
internet connection is available.
Does the library will be open all the time?
Basic feature of the digital library is accessible to 24 hours.
Does the library have a multi-access?
Can often be more than one party to use the same resources at the
same time. It may not be the case for materials subject to copyright:
it may be the library's license to "lend" and only one copy at a time;
This is achieved with a digital rights management system, where it
can become a source cannot be accessed after the expiration of the
lending period or after that lender chooses to make it inaccessible
(which is equivalent to re-resources).
How to extract information?
Library user can use any term (a word, phrase, title, name, subject)
to look at the entire group. Can be as digital libraries provide an
easy-to-use interfaces, allowing access to resources by clicking.
How to improve the electronic library?
Can improve certain properties in the materials, the quality of the
images in the first place. Digital can also enhance clarity and
remove defects such as spots and change colors.
Do you need to provide a copy of the e-library?
To be back up at the work of maintenance and operation to identify
the mistakes.

CHAPTER THREE
STUDY OF PREVIOUS LIBRARY SITES
We introduce in this chapter, five electronic libraries as a similar
case studies. The libraries are, Electronic Library, SDL, Riyadh Alelm
Library, Jarir Reader, and Noon Books.
3.1 ELECTRONIC LIBRARY
Electronic Library (http://download-pdf-ebooks.net ) is a collection of
articles stored in digital format and can be accessed via several
mode most important means of access to the contents of the digital
library is a computer network in particular online, and characterized
by digital libraries objectives (commercial, cultural and other
thematically focus of the (religious, literary, scientific, technical ...
etc.) In addition, characterized materials as easy production,
publishing and distribution to millions inexpensively.
Producing a book in digital format abbreviated printing paper,
transportation and distribution costs prohibitive, is sufficient to
produce a digital copy and one placed on a central server and sold
to buyers who connect to the server via the Internet and digital
libraries

24
Figure 3.1 The main interface of the Electronic Library
The quick and easy way to gain access to the books and archival
photographs.

Storage space is limited in the traditional libraries, and digital

libraries the ability to store a lot of information in a confined space,
digital information and material you need for a very small space to
store them, the cost of maintaining a digital library is much less
than traditional library, The researcher can use any library in the
term (a word, phrase, address, name and subject) to search the
entire group, can digital libraries provide an easy-to-use interfaces,
allowing access to resources by clicking.

Requirements, Functional requirements, and Non Functional
Requirements. This is the core part of the proposed project; our
focus will be based on Functional requirements since it introducing
the implementation part.
4.1 TECHNIQUES USED TO COLLECT REQUIREMENTS

A questionnaire: by offering a group of questions to find out

the requirements of the students in the Library is distributed
among the students.
Interviews: through an interview students wandering about
jobs, which they need in the Library such as borrow books and
load books.
Brainstorm: have been a gathering of members of the Group
and to reflect the requirements of the site and functions on
site.
Similar projects: The work of the project has been individually
for each of the members of the Group resolution to search for
locations electronic library and draw some of the functions of
the implementation of the project.

4.2 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

In this project we introduce electronic information management and
retrieval protocols and programs, programs should be modern
depending on the latest standards and techniques required to
manage the library of Department of computer Science and
Computer Engineering and updating, Electronic sources: include
books, and files electronic, optical disks.

31

For Hardware requirements: For project implementation, 5 standard

PCs with connection to the internet are needed one PC for each
team member. PCs doesnt have to be high speed; PC with latest
technology is acceptable. In addition a domain on Godaddy.com is
needed to hold the proposed website. For standard teamwork in
daily basis, single shared scanner and printer with the accompany
A4 will be sufficient

For Software requirements, the website implementation needs an

original copy of Microsoft Visual Studio. Microsoft Visual Studio is
needed to be able to program the website through ASP.Net. In
addition SQL Server is also needed to be able to design the website
database. For reports and status of current users and books usages
and downloads, Crystal Reports which is accompanied with Microsoft
Visual Studio CD will be used. The website is intended for Windows
operating systems, Windows 7 and XP and even Linux is supported.
The website is multiplatform. In addition the website shall work
without problems on Google Chrome and Microsoft internet explorer.
There are two main software requirements needed to complete the
project, namely, Functional requirements and Non-Function
requirement.
4.2.1Functional Requirements:
(1)User Registration: To any student in Taibah University to be
able to use TUDL, he/she must register on the website. The
registration is straight forward, the user is asked to enter his
details such as his name, phone number, and collage, in
addition to his e-mail and the required username and
password. The user is asked to submit his details to be able to
create his username. An e-mail is sent to the user for verifying
his credentials. The different stages of user registration are
shown in the Use Case diagram in Figure 4.1

32
Figure 4.1 The User Registration in the proposed TUDL showing the
registration process which includes, verify credentials,
assign username and password, and enter user details

User registration is also shown with a simple decision tree

shown in Figure 4.2, when the user opens the website, when
the he/she clicks on any link or try to download a book, he/she
is checked if he is enrolled on the website as an existing user
or not, if he is previously register, his favorite page will be
shown otherwise the standard registration process is initiated.

Figure 4.2 Decision tree showing the different stages of user

registration
(2)Addition of new book: The admin of the library can add any
kind of books that belong to Taibah University. The book is
added by entering all details related to the book such as book
name, size, number of pages and the date of publication and
its author, The books is added after the administrator login
process, The admin can select list of PDF files to add to the
website. Finally the admin log out. Adding new book is
depicted in Figure 4.3 use case diagram
the admin must make sure that the book is not already exist
before start the adding process.

(3)Book Download: Allows students to download library books
available on computer PDF format to their computers through
the log and then choose the book and upload. Book Download
can be initiated in either when the user displaying or reading a
book or when the results of the book search is listed. A small
link with PDF refereeing the book link into the database will be
put beside each item in the results of book search. Registered
users only are allowed to download books. A simple DT shows
the user interaction with book download is shown in Figure 4.4

Figure 4.4Download book function showing only users

registered to TUDL are only allowed to download books
The following Sequence diagram Shown in Figure 4.5
describes the user state transition of typical registered user
wants to download a book. The user clicks a download link on
the website, if he is registered user the system will divert to
the database to search for the corresponding book by user ID
and then returns the book file. The file is then directed the
download folder of the users PC.

34

(4)Delete Book or Delete Book Category: The admin login to
the library. He can delete any kind of books, the admin can
delete books by listing books or through saved search results,
he can select all of the books to delete them. This is done
through the login admin process then search for the book to
be deleted using certain information and then delete the book.
And to be sure of the success of the deletion process by
searching for the book and make sure it is not found. The
admin then logout. Delete book or book category is shown in
Figure 4.6

35

Figure 4.6 Sequence diagram showing the sequence of admin

deletes book
The following sequence diagram as shown in Figure 4.7
describes the transition state of the Registered admin wants
to delete a book, the admin get the book and then start
deleting it. The admin can delete a whole category of books,
in addition admin can delete specific user or prohibit user from
accessing the library.

Figure 4.7 Sequence diagram showing the sequence of admin

delete book.

(5)Search: The admin of the site can log and search for
information about user and also can search for specific book. If
there is no search results for a book, try to search again in
various ways, such as using book name, book author, book
ISBN, etc. Searching book and user is shown in Figure 4.8

36

Figure 4.8 The search of book in the proposed TUDL showing the
search process which includes, book details, and book details
include, update record. When search about book we must assign
book id.
The search results are categorized in one of the following
forms
a) the most relevant book,
b) ordered alphabetically,
c) ordered by publishing date
d) ordered alphabetically by publisher name
e) ordered by author name

37

Search results are displayed in list or rows, each row contains

two cells, and the first cell describes or shows detail of the
book, the second cell shows a photo of the cover or the first
page of the book. The detailed process of book search is
depicted in Figure 4.9. Search for book by either ID, name, or
publisher name, if the books is not available, a message
saying the book is not available will be displayed, otherwise
the user will be diverted to make sure that he is registered, if
so he can preview the book. After previewing the book, an
icon is shown to be able to add the book to the users favorite
list.

Figure 4.9 The detailed transactions of the search process

(6)
Favorite list: The possibility to choose and create a list
of favorite book choices for students who have an account in
the Library. The user enters his user name and password to be
able to login and access to its own favorite books list. The
detailed favorite list management is shown in Figure 4.10.
The flow chart in the figure describes the transition state of
the registered user. If the user wants to add or see the favorite
list about book, he first log in by using the necessary
information and then the user is checked for account
information by the system and if the information is correct
user can view and choose their favorite books and add new
books to his favorite list.

38

Figure 4.10 diagram describe the user wants to view and

add favorite list at the library.
(7)Contact form: Contact form, is one of the basic requirements
in the library site, it is important for the continual support of
the site. It is useful in book addition, the user can ask the
admin to add a book or add suggestion or report abuse in
regards to the library using. Basically the user should provide
the following data {email, subject, massage}, the user then
clicks submit button to be able to send a message to the site
Admins e-mail. A rough design of the contact form is Shown in
Figure 4.11

39

library Admin. The user enters e-mile , subject and message then
click submit button to send a message to the site admin.
(8)
Book Categories: Library books are classified as
distinguish from each other according to their subject matter,
according to a particular classification, the library books are
arranged on the website according to their categories. The
update of the book categories is shown in Figure 2.13.

Figure 4.12
The book categorizing in the proposed TUDL showing the
classification process which includes, add new field, assign field id,
.enter field detail and update field

40

The pervious diagram shows the process of classifying the

library into many categories or fields. The admin add new
field and assign the id of it, then store the details in system
.and update the new field

(9)Book Browsing: The categories of the library will be shown,

the student can search for the book, if he/she want to read a
book, he/she must be sure that it is available, and then he/she
can browse it, if not he/she is able to leave a massage using
the contact form and library will offer it later. The book
browsing process is shown in Figure 4.13.

Figure 4.13.The steps of browsing book in TUDL

The following diagram, Figure 4.14 shows how the process of
browsing book work , we see that as in figure the student
search for book and the system provide it to the student and
. then the student can browse it

41

Figure 4.14 The book browsing in the proposed TUDL showing the
browsing process which includes, search for book, check for book
availability and browsing book.
4.2.2 Non-Functional Requirements

Chapter 5
TECHINCAL DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION
5.1 Getting Started
One factor makes a page of any kind work. That is legibility. Web
pages not only need to be legible, but also need to download
quickly.
Web sites also need to be legible. Since a Web site is a structure for
pages, the legibility of a site is constituted as ease of navigation. It
is easy to navigate a book, it is a linear object that you can flip
through the pages of. Web sites are more difficult to navigate.
Therefore, you need to actively work on designing them in ways that
make it easier for users to get around in them.
