Abstract

Automated Information System is a software application which often provides a major impact on the universities’ social and economic satisfaction as it consists of various aspects of the educational process, automates administrative and business activities and financial management, assists in decision-making by supporting information flow within the university. UG-LMIS (University of Gitwe Library Management Information System) is a library automation web application, a sub-module of the University of Gitwe’s Integrated Management Information System (UGIMIS), a web-based and an online application automating the whole university’s management. UG-LMIS was designed for the University of Gitwe to replace its existing manual record-keeping system. The new system controls the following information; student information, the catalog of books, track of issues and return of books, book searching and tracking, e-mail services, notice about book issue status, reporting capabilities, etc. These services are provided in an efficient and cost-effective manner with the goal of reducing the time and resources currently required for such tasks. UG-LMIS is a UMIS with great user interface designs, more performance enhancements, and many of enriched modules. It works for a big deal to bring value to the words ‘care’ and ‘comfort’ in this higher learning scenario. Besides, UG-LIMS is endowed with an advanced feature as it is a part of the university website, it can be accessed online anywhere at any time.
