Library Management

A library register that doesn't rely on a librarian's memory for who has which book

Catalog every book once, issue and return with a barcode scan, and let the system track due dates and overdue fines automatically — while students search the catalog themselves.

Every book, author, and category searchable — no physical card catalog to maintain.

Barcode issue & return

Scan to issue or return a book in seconds, with the student's record updated instantly.

Automated due-date tracking

Overdue books and fines are tracked automatically, without a manual ledger.

Student self-service search

FAQ

Common questions about library management

Straight answers before you book a demo.

Can students check book availability without visiting the library?

Yes, students can search the library catalog directly from the student app to check whether a book is available before heading over.

How are overdue books and fines tracked?

Due dates are tracked automatically per issued copy, with overdue alerts sent and fines calculated according to your school's policy, without a manual overdue register.

Can we track multiple copies of the same book?

Yes, each physical copy is tracked individually, so you always know exactly which copy is issued, available, or marked lost or damaged.

Is library management included in the core school ERP or a separate add-on?

Library management is one of MyClassDiary's core modules, included as part of the connected school ERP rather than a separate purchase.
