ABSTRACT

The project focuses on the development skills of the user. The knowledge acquired

proves to be helpful and effective, only if it is implemented. The implementation of the knowledge

acquired is trough project and case studies based on real time scenarios.

The “LIBRARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM” undertaken as a project is

based on relevant technologies .The projects are done in groups where the student learn

to work in a team, manage project schedules ,follow the best coding standards and

conventions and adhere to project documentation standards.

Here in this project we use front end as VC++ and backend as ms-access.

We store information about the books and the students who have taken the books. All

these details are stored in the database by entering into VC++ and the details can be

displayed from the database by writing the query in VC ++. This project involves several

modules to carry out each action.

We created database for storing the details in tables .We created table for

MEMBER DETAILS, a table for storing BOOK DETAILS and another table for storing

the details of the students who have taken the books namely MEMBER BOOK

DETAILS.

We can also store the details at run time ,that is we can enter the student

details by entering the details of the student separately at run time. Likewise the

transaction details can also be entered at run time. We can either store in a database and

see the details when required or see the details at run time by selecting the option display.

Hence in the existing system for LIBRARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

,the performance evaluation system and the maintenance are done manually. The
proposed system will maintain all the information in a standard database and will be able
to generate reports as and when necessary.Accessing and the user has the right to search
based on the above mentioned criterias.
1. ANALYSIS PHASE

In this Analysis phase we are analyzing the requirements what we want to do project.

We have to collect the requirements needed to develop the project. For that we have to refer the books and

websites for gathering the requirements.

In this analysis phase, we have to design the project in mind how it has to be and what

are all the operations that has to carry in the project and how it has to be interactive with the users and how

it has to attract the customer.

The project has to contain all the details about the members in the library and books in

the library and the details the members who taken the books and this details has to store in the database for

this type we have to analyze the problem and we have to develop the project. In this analysis phase we have

to collect the details about the project such as what are all operations that will make interactive and what

are all the fields that has to be present n the database and the database must store the details of all the

members and the book details and the members who taken the books.

In this analysis phase only we will collect the information about the project. This is the

first stage of the project. After this only we will start doing project that is the design of the project will

carry after this stage. After that we will write the project coding and we will test the project.

This phase will take the duration up to 1 to 2 weeks for completion of this analysis

stage that is for collecting the requirements and it has to contain all the details about the project. In some

projects it will take more time for completion of the analysis stage because it has to collect more

requirements, it has to be depend upon the project it will take duration, hence for small type of projects we

can easily complete the project within the short duration, for large projects it will take more duration for

analysis stage and also for completion of the project.

But for this project we can easily complete the project within the short duration because

it is like a mini project and also we can easily complete the stage of analysis. If we completed the stage of

analysis then it appears like we completed the 25% of the project within short duration.
1.1 SCHEDULE OF THE PROJECT
2. DESIGN PHASE

In this design stage we are designing our project according to customer satisfaction or user

satisfaction. In this design phase the user must understand the whole project by seeing the design of the

project. After the completion of the analysis stage the user must design the project according to the

collected requirements in the analysis stage. After the completion of the analysis stage the user must

continue with the design stage.

In this project the user must create the database to store the details of members, books, and

reports tables based upon collection of table requirements collected in the design stage.

In this tables, one field has been given as primary key in the design of tables because it won’t

allow the duplicate values of members or it won’t accept the same id number for different members.

For Book Details table also one primary key has been allocated for neglecting the same values for

the field Book number and another table was created that is for storing the details of transaction that has

been carried out, in that database it doesn’t have any

keys in that because it can contain the details many users can take the book with same
account number.

After creation of tables the user must design the project that is it can also represent the design in

the form of Data Flow Diagrams. In the Data Flow diagrams it contains the levels that is it has to be

represented in Level 0 DFD, Level 1 DFD, Level 2 DFD,… so that we can represent the Data flow

diagrams in that format up to number of DFD’s required in the project.

The user must design or draw the DFD diagrams based upon the project what it will do, what are

the operations that was carrying in the project it will represent the DFD diagrams in the one by one

operation that was carrying in the project.

 The user must understand the project what are all the operations in the project that was going to

do or carrying out by seeing the DFD Diagrams. In that format the user must draw the DFD diagram. The

DFD diagram that must contain all the details of the project.

2.1 LEVEL 0 DFD DIAGRAM:

In Level 0 DFD diagram, it will display the menus of the project that is

what are all we can do in the project. From that we can select the option what we are

going to do. Based upon the condition it display the next screen for the selected

operation.

LEVEL O DFD DIAGRAM

2.2 LEVEL 1 DFD DIAGRAM:

In Level 1 DFD diagram it takes the input details and store the details in the database. It

takes the details separately for each table and store details separately in each table.

2.2.1 TO STORE THE DETAILS OF MEMBERS:

2.2.2 TO STORE THE DETAILS OF BOOKS:

2.2.3 TO STORE THE DETAILS OF TRANSACTIONS

2.3 LEVEL 2 DFD DIAGRAM:

 In Level 2 DFD diagram it displays the selected details or the details of all

books present in the library and the details of selected members or all the members who

are having the membership in the library and the transaction details of members who

have taken books.
