Name of the Proponents: Galano, Kariz Reinalyn B. Lazaro, Don Ricardo C. Sebastian, Rozmaigne Ann L. Viesca, Kevin Patrick E.
School Year/Trimester: 2011-2012/Second Trimester
Proposed System Title: Automated Library System in AMA Computer Learning Center (ACLC) Las Piñas Utilizing Barcode Technology
Area of Investigation: AMA Computer Learning Center Las Piñas, was formerly known as AMA Telecommunication Learning Center or AMATEL. It was established on June, 1996 located in the heart of Las Piñas in front of SM Southmall under the management of Mr. and Mrs. Eduardo S. Aguirre Jr. After four years AMATEL was then changed to ACLC under the order of AMA Group of Companies.
At present ACLC has three hundred sixty five students enrolled. The institution is currently using a manual system in their Library and has weak security. Students can borrow books but need to return it within 5 school days. There is no proper monitoring on books being returned. There are no penalties imposed to the students as well. The only way the librarian will find out if there are still pending books not returned is during the end of semester at the inventory period. The librarian then will not sign the clearance of the students who failed to return the books. Another problem is the list of inventory of books. The students need to go and ask for the librarian’s assistance in order for them to search for the books.
The advantage of Library automation is to improve the quality, speed and effectiveness of services. For the Barcode technology and LAN concept it ensures total integrity of collected data.
The proposed system will consists of the following modules:
Registration and Verification This module is for the librarian to easily monitor the old/new students and faculty member’s identity. This registration contains their personal
