Library module
Library Management Software for Schools
Catalogue, issue and return, with every book tied to the student who has it and the date it is due back.
Catalogue and circulation · tied to student records
Every title, copy and accession number in a single searchable list.
Recorded against a student or staff record, with due dates tracked.
See what is out, with whom, and how late, without compiling a list.
What the library module covers
The day-to-day of a school library, minus the register nobody can search.
Catalogue
Titles, authors, accession numbers and the number of copies held.
Issue and return
Against a student or staff record, with due dates set automatically.
Overdues
A live list of what is out past its return date, ready to act on.
Fines
Late fees recorded against the student’s account alongside other dues.
Why a searchable catalogue changes the library
A library that cannot be searched is a room of books nobody can find.
- Books stop being tracked in a register that only one person can read.
- Librarians can see a student’s borrowing history before issuing another book.
- Overdue lists are generated rather than compiled by hand.
- Fines sit on the same account as other school payments.
- Staff borrowing is recorded the same way as student borrowing.
Common questions
Do we need barcode scanners?
They speed things up, but issue and return can be done by searching for the title or the student.
Can students see what they have out?
Yes, in the parent and student app, along with the due date.
Can we import our existing catalogue?
Usually yes. Send us a sample of the format your current list is in and we will confirm.
Does it handle staff borrowing?
Yes. Books can be issued to staff records as well as to students.
