Software Requirements Specification

1. Introduction
1.1 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 System
1.2 Scope:
This project is an Intranet based application that can be accessed

GOAL GETTERS
throughout the campus. This system can be used to search for

books/magazines, reserve books, find out who is having a particular book, put in
requests to buy a new book etc. This is one integrated system that contains both
the user component and the librarian component . The Online Library System is
supposed to have the following features.
· The product provides the members with online blocking of books capabilities
and the Online Library System is up and running all day.
· The system provides logon facility to the users.
· The system provides the members with the option to check their account
and/or change their options like password of the account whenever needed
all through the day during the library hours.
The system allows the members to block the books 24 hours a day and all the through the
semester.

· The system allows the Librarian to create the books catalog, add/delete
books and maintain the books catalog.
· The system updates the billing system as and when the member borrows or
returns a book.
· The book catalog is automated and the decision of offering the book based
on the category of the book is automatically decided.
· We also have an order department, which manages to add or remove a
book from the Library.

1.6 Overview: The SRS will include two sections, namely:
-I- Overall Description: This section will describe major components of

the system, interconnections, and external interfaces.
-I- Specific
Requirements: This section will describe the
functions of actors, their roles in the system and the constraints
faced by the system.
2.1 Overall Description:

2.2 Product Perspective:
The Online Library System is a package to be used by Libraries to improve
the 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.
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].
2.3 Software Interface:
-I- Front End Client:

2.3 Hardware Interface:

Client Side: The existing Local Area Network (LAN) will be used for collecting data
from the users and also for updating the Library Catalogue.
Server Side: The existing Local Area Network (LAN) will be used for collecting
data from the users and also for updating the Library Catalogue.
2.4 Product Functions:.
 A Person Should be able to login to the system through the

first page of the application and change the password after
login into the system.
 see the status of the books/journals borrowed/reserved by
him and the respective due dates and other relevant details.
 search for a particular book/journal based on the name of the
book/name of the author/subject/etc and also list for

 reserve a particular book/journal borrowed by others
currently
 As soon as a reservation is made for a particular book, an
automatic mail should be sent to the person who made the
reservation about the details. Then, a mail should be sent to
people who are having the book currently, stating a
reservation has been made on that book
 Automatic mails should be sent to the users about the expiry
of due dates for the books/journals borrowed by them. An
advance notification (say, 4 days before the expiry of the due
GOAL GETTERS
date) should be sent as well.

 The librarian should be able to include new books/journals or
remove some books from the inventory
 see the purchase requests for new books and be able to
approve/reject the same
2.5 User Characteristics:
The users of this system are as follows:
A. College Students
B. Faculty
C. Book authors
D. publishers
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.
2.6 Constraints:
 Management Processes shall use a fully relational database back-

end.
 Management Processes shall produce standards-compliant HTML.
 Management Processes shall provide a development and training

environment with the ability to migrate configurations to a
production environment.

GOAL GETTERS
 User rights and privileges will be controlled through security groups

and/or “roles” that allow access control for individuals, workgroups,
and arbitrary staff groups.
