Library Management System with Barcode Issue

Catalogue, barcode-scanned issue and return, and automatic fines

1-2 weeks build

Overview

Librarians catalogue titles and copies, print a barcode label for each copy, and issue or return books by scanning the label and a student ID card with a USB scanner or the laptop camera. Due dates follow per-member borrowing rules, overdue returns calculate the fine automatically, and students can search the catalogue and reserve a title that is out.

  • 03Borrowing limits and loan periods per member type
  • 04Automatic overdue fines with waiver and payment records
  • 05Student OPAC search with reservations and due-date reminders
