INTRODUCTION
This report will provide a detailed account of the processes used to design and implement
a database that can be used to manage a library system. Each subsection of the report
corresponds to an important feature of database design.

Purpose
The main objective of this document is to illustrate the requirements of the project library
management system.
This document gives a detailed description of functional and non-functional requirements
The purpose of this project is to provide a friendly environment to maintain the details of
books and library members.

Non-Functional Requirements-

5
Performance requirements
The proposed system that we are going to develop will be used as the Chief performance
system within the different campuses of the university

Which interact with the university staff and students. Therefore, it is expected that the
database would perform functionally all the requirements that are specified by the university.

Safety requirements
The database may get crashed at any certain time due to virus or operating system failure.
Therefore, it is required to take the database backup.

Security requirements

We are going to develop a secured database for the university .There are different categories
of users namely teaching staff ,administrator, library staff ,students etc., Depending upon the
category of user the access rights are decided .It means if the user is an administrator then he
can be able to modify the data, delete ,append etc., All other users other than library staff
only have the rights to retrieve the information about database.

Hardware constraints
The system requires a database in order to store persistent data. The database
should have backup capabilities.

Design constraints
The system must be designed to allow web usability. That is,
t h e system must be designed in such a way that will be easy to use and visible on
most of the browsers.

Operating environment-
The product will be operating in windows environment. Also it will be compatible with the
IE 6.0. Most of the features will be compatible with the Mozilla firefox & Opera 7.0 or higher
version. The only requirement to use this online product would be the internet connection.
