Design And Implementation Of A Computer Based Library Indexing System (a Case Study Of Imt Library, Enugu)

A library system is an information system that serves a population of users.  The term “Information system” is normally used in situations where an organization is considered as a whole with respect to its information requirement and information utilization.

In a library environment, “indexing has remained the means of text and document identification.  Comprehensively, indexing is a term, which is applied to many compilation and arrangement of text and documents which is either in alphabetical order, chronological or numerical order.

The Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) Enugu Library is a standard Library.  The computerization of a standard library is the use of computer system to implement its manually based operations.  However the introduction of computer systems with a view of proliferating information technology has gone a long way in extending its technological handshake to all spectrum of life.

Similarly, IMT Library is not left out.  This project is embarked to improve this limitation such as security, accuracy and reliability of inventory and speed of service et cetera.  The principal objective for this research work (project) is to identify a number of problems that are inherent with the use of manual method of indexing and cataloguing in IMT library.  Hence, proffer solutions to the identified problem through computerization alternative.
