Purpose

The purpose of Software Requirements Specification (SRS) document is

to describe the external behavior of the Online Library System. Requirements Specification

defines and describes the operations, interfaces, performance, and quality assurance

requirements of the Online Library System. The document also describes the nonfunctional

requirements such as the user interfaces. It also describes the design constraints that are to be

considered when the system is to be designed, and other factors necessary to provide a

complete and comprehensive description of the requirements for the software. The Software

Requirements Specification (SRS) captures the complete software requirements for the

system, or a portion of the system. Requirements described in this document are derived from

the Vision Document prepared for the Online Library SystemIntended Audience and Reading
Suggestions

We are developing our project Library Management System for the college or

any Institute. But this project can be deployed in any organization. This SRS is mainly

developed for the project development team. In this team there are the project manager,

developer, coder, tester and documentation writer and the user of the project also.

User (Customer)

This document is intended to user and customer to make them ensure that this

document is well meeting the need of the users.

Project Manager

This SRS document is also very important for the project manager to ensure that

can estimate the cost easily by referring to the SRS document and that it contains all the
information require planning the project.

Project Developer

The project developer will refer to the SRS document to make sure that they developed

exactly hat the customer requires

read this SRS document and he
will ensure that the

are understandable from
functionality point of view
so that he can test the
software and
validate its working.

Maintenance
The SRS document
helps the maintenance engineers
to understand functionality
of the system, a clear

efficiency of Librarians, Library employees and Users. The Online Library System to be

developed benefits greatly the members and the Librarian of institute. The system provides

books catalog and information to members and helps them decide on the books to borrow

from the library. The Librarian can keep the books catalog updated all the time so that the

members (students and the professors) get the updated information all the time.

Product Features

The Online Library System provides online real time information about the books

available in the Library and the user information. The Product functions are more or less the

same as described in the product perspective. The functions of the system include the system
providing different type of services based on the type of users [Member/Librarian].

or returned the books.

the book catalog.

• The members when complete the book borrowing or returning process, the

due to be paid by the member must be calculated and the information about the

member and the due amount is sent to the university billing system.

User Classes and Characteristics

The users of the system are members, librarian of the institute and the

administrators who maintain the system. The members and the librarian are assumed to have

basic knowledge of the computers and Internet browsing. The administrators of the system to

have more knowledge of the internals of the system and is able to rectify the small problems

that may arise due to disk crashes, power failures and other catastrophes to maintain the

system. The proper user interface, users manual, online help and the guide to install and

maintain the system must be sufficient to educate the users on how to use the system without

any problems.
