Software Requirements Specification (SRS) for Library Management

System 1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This document specifies the software requirements for the Library Management
System (LMS). It serves as a reference for stakeholders and guides the
development, testing, and maintenance processes.
1.2 Document Conventions
 All functional requirements are prefixed with "FR" and numbered
sequentially.  Non-functional requirements are prefixed with "NFR".
 All figures and tables are labelled and numbered.
1.3 Intended Audience and Reading Suggestions
 Developers: For understanding detailed system requirements.
 Testers: For creating test cases and scenarios.
 Stakeholders: For verifying that requirements meet business
needs.  Librarians and Administrators: For understanding system
functionalities. 1.4 Project Scope
The LMS is designed to streamline library operations. It supports book cataloguing,
user management, borrowing/return tracking, fine management, and reporting. The
system will be scalable and secure, catering to libraries of various sizes.
