The Library Management System using Raspberry Pi 3B+, LCD display, Website, Pi Camera, QR Code, and RFID Reader aims to modernize and automate library operations. The system uses RFID tags for user, enabling seamless checkouts and returns, while a Pi Camera scans QR codes on books for quick identification. The Raspberry Pi 3B+ serves as the central hub, running a web-based application for real-time inventory management, student account management like ROLL NO, Book Name, Time taking, delivery and pending Book status. LCD screens provide instant feedback on user and book statuses, while a web portal allows users to browse, reserve, and manage books online. By combining these technologies, the system improves operational efficiency, reduces manual intervention, and enhances the overall library experience for both users and administrators.

 

Features:

• User-Friendly Interface: The system is designed for ease of use, with both physical (LCD display) and digital (web-based portal) interfaces.
• RFID and QR Code Integration: Combines RFID and QR code technologies to automate and speed up the process of book checkout, return, and user verification.
• Real-Time Inventory Management: Both the website and LCD provide up-to-date information on available books, user transactions, and overdue items.
• Web Portal for Admins and Users: Allows users to search books, reserve them online, and check their borrowing history. Admins can track all transactions, update the catalog, and manage user accounts.
• Pi Camera for Barcode Scanning: The Pi Camera reads QR codes on books for quick identification and checkout, reducing the need for manual entry.
