So, instead of going to library to do manually, users can browse it no matter where they are. The objective of development the UTP E-Library system is to present the benefits of the online system. The research will justify whether the online system really can benefit the user and how will user gain advantages from it. To narrow down the scope further, this study or research will be focusing on the functionalities of the E-Library system which are renewal book and reservation or booking books in advance. The users may be able to renew the books and reserve the unavailable book online through the system. Besides that, the users may check their loan books and reservation current status. Moreover, users may be also provided with automatic due date alert and overdue remainders. The system interface will be created using various tools such as HTML, Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, and PHP language. The development process will take count on the Waterfall Methodology with the systematic phase. This includes step-by-step phases starting with requirement definition, system and software design, implementation and unit testing, and lastly, integration and system testing.
