  Index books in detail using the MARC21 system with dedicated tables for all book details, including authors and classifications. A classification wizard assists with Dewey classification. The system supports QR code technology for printing, retrieval, and borrowing. It allows adding book cover images, electronic copies, and necessary classifications and types. Quick search options are available by title, serial number, author, publisher, or record number. Books can be arranged and displayed for easy navigation. There's also a direct link with the catalog website for instant book updates.

  

• Loan and Return

  The lending system manages entities, sets book limits, loan durations, and fines. It allows easy borrower selection and book tracking via barcodes, handles borrower accounts, and calculates fines. Loan details like dates, overdue days, and fines are clearly displayed in a list. It also generates reports on borrowers, loans, and overdue items and integrates with local systems for staff, students, and faculty, if available.

  

• Fines

  Manage fines for all loan agencies by setting daily late fees and a maximum total fine. The system automatically calculates fines daily for overdue books. It tracks all borrower fines—due, paid, and their dates—and allows fine payments to be registered with receipt printing. The system can pause fine calculations on holidays and provides options to cancel fines with reasons and user tracking. Reports on fines due and paid can be extracted for specific periods with various options.

  

• Reports

  Extract detailed book reports with various options. Generate borrowing reports, including books loaned during a period, books not yet returned, borrower activity, and overdue returns, with filters for time periods and borrower names. Fines reports cover due, paid, and omitted fines with all relevant details.

  

• Administrators Permissions

  The system allows detailed permissions for administrators, defining user access to different library sections. It separates responsibilities for book management, loans, and financial matters related to fines. Administrators can also view reports on user activities and system usage.

  

• Barcode Printing

  Dynamically extracting and printing barcodes for books according to the book's sequence number to be used and pasted on books and used later in the lending, retrieval and inventory operations.
