• APPLIED QUICK RESPONSE CODE: IMPLEMENTING THE UTILIZATION OF ONLINE LIBRARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AT WEST PHILIPPINES INSTITUTE
• Variables:

  • quick response code
  • online library management system
• Functions of the proposed project

  • Implementing QR codes for the Online Library Management System to enhance the efficiency and accessibility at West Philippines Institute
  • Using a website for automation of the Online Library Management System at WPI for categorizing available books, specifically research books accessed by the librarian
  • Maintaining a database of borrowed books that have been retrieved or issued, together with their respective dates
• Limitations of the scanner project

  • Reliability
  • Financial
  • Time
  • Availability of Materials
• Reliability


  The scanner would operate together with QR codes when it has electricity. While the website should have access to an Internet connection, in certain circumstances, some students do not have a phone or upgraded phone, in that case, the information of the borrower will be manually input by the librarian.
• Financial


  Required resources are limited due to the financial provision to achieve and further widely implement this project.
• Time


  This project would require enough time to expand the creation successfully as it was limited to the whole second semester of 2023-2024.
• Availability of Materials


  It was noticed that some of the materials used in this project were not visually seen in daily life due to the increase in demand for supplies and availability, which can cause the project to be delayed.
• RELATED LITERATURE

              This study introduces the following variables: Online Library Management System, Quick Response Code, and Traditional Library vs. Online Library.
• Online Library Management System


  Provides a specific Quick Response (QR) code among students who will borrow any research book in the library
• This research aims to determine the extent to which an Online Library Management System can provide a specific Quick Response (QR) code among students who will borrow any research book in the library, ultimately contributing to a more reliable prototype at West Philippines Institute
