| Summary: | Library can be considered as the backbone of any educational institution. This is so since it is
the place which provides pool of resources for supporting knowledge acquirement at such
institutions. Nowadays, most libraries not only house printed books but also bank of computers
to assist patrons getting hold of online materials. At the same time, libraries also provide a
conducive place for people to meet, interact and discuss in the pursuit of knowledge. Among
the services often provided by a library is book loan. Careful management of book loan is
crucial in order to maintain the inventory of a library. Book loan management can be seen from
the perspectives of two types of users: librarians and patrons. While book loan management‟s
procedures and application systems for the librarians have been well documented and
developed, the same cannot be said for the usage of the patrons. |
