 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

We take this opportunity to present our votes of thanks to all those guidepost who really
acted as lightening pillars to enlighten our way throughout this project that has led to
successful and satisfactory completion of this study.

We are really grateful to Dimple ma’am for providing us with an opportunity to undertake
this project and providing us with all the facilities. I am highly thankful to mam for her
active support, valuable time and advice, whole-hearted guidance, sincere cooperation and
pains-taking involvement during the study and in completing the assignment of preparing
the said project within the time stipulated.

Lastly, I am thankful to all those, particularly the various friends , who have been
instrumental in creating proper, healthy and conductive environment and including new and
fresh innovative ideas for us during the project, without their help, it would have been
extremely difficult for us to prepare the project in a time bound framework.

 INTRODUCTION
The project is based on – “Book Management System”.
Computer is fast emerging as a daily need in walks of life. The knowledge of computers and
Programming language has become basic.

Skill need to service in today’s information based society.

Every business Institution and the corporate section, make a use of computer for making their
operation efficient & effective.

In this project, the user first login to his/her account. If user does not exists, so he/she can
create new account through new user options. After login into the system, now user can see the
books available in the book store. Also he/she can sell the books in available books options.

In order to log out of the system, user need to click on quit button.
 Problem Statement

Book distributors transaction handling is one of the complex process and it required
Computerised system to maintain overall transactions in an easier manner. Due to heavy
demand of books in these competitive worlds, data increase so much. Books shop required up
to date information about the customer who purchased books or about the sellers from where
books are purchased. The books shop requires large amount of data to record and to store,
which are collected from the Book House. A Book Shop management system is basically for
management of incoming and outgoing material from the Book shop It also maintain
management of all incoming and outgoing finance from the Shop account section. It will
reduce paper work & work load of user. To reduce the Paper work and provide fast service to
customers. The main objective is to provide the customers fast and error free transaction. It can
be used in any Book Shop for maintaining database details and their quantities. This project is
used for handle user needs. It must be outgoing process to know requirements of customer
during whole system development life cycle
 FEASIBILITY STUDY

Every project would be feasible, if provided with unlimited resources and unlimited
time. But unfortunately, the development of computer-based system of book is more
likely plagued by a security of resources and difficult time constraint. It is both
necessary and prudent to evaluate the feasibility of the project at the earliest possible
time. During software engineering we concentrate our attention on four primary area of
interest. The techniques used in conducting an initial investigation and feasibility study
are very similar but the objectives are not so.
The major objectives of feasibility study are to further define the problem and to
determine the best way to solve it. The typical primary objectives are:
 A centralized database will be developed.
 Runtime operating decision-making will be eliminated.
 Unnecessary control procedure will be automated.
 The minimum of paper work should be produced.

The output produced by the system should be in a usable format

 Requirement of project

Hardware and Software Requirements of Project

Hardware Requirement:
Here is the recommended hardware requirement for this software to run efficiently.
1) Intel core i3 or higher processor
2) 10 MB RAM
3) 15 MB free hard disc space
4) SVGA monitors / Laptops
5) Printer (Optional)

Software Requirement:

This software comes under application software. So the necessary software for this is

1) Windows operating system family.

2) Python Idle
3) Sqlite3 or any other database
Current Status of the project
After taking the personal details from the user then we need to proceed further where the role
of actual working of project starts. Now user can search for the books available in the store.
He/she can buy that book and if he/she wants to sell the book, they can choose the sell books
options.
 Future Scope and Limitation

This software has demands in private and public area. This software provides a great
help in managing the data in a well-mannered order. This project is designed specially to
maintain the data in a sequential manner and to save the tome and efforts of database
Administrator. The project is structured according to today’s need.

Due to time constraint it is possible that some points might remain uncovered by us. In
future we will update our software to give valuable information left at present.

Though the system has been designed according to the requirements of the users it has its
own limitation. Thus the limitation of system are-

1.) No facility to create new users with different roles

2.) Object oriented Approach has been not been fully utilized
