      Unless I misunderstand your question, I would think that asking the people who would use your system might yield better advice, since they are the ones whose productivity would be affected.

          Listen man! The best answer will comes from the users of the system (which you have been told off by the previous thread). No matter what might be suggested by "experts" here or somewhere else, the best functionality request comes from the users, period. you may add something which you or someone else thought is cool, but the end user may not find it necessary or even worst may not use it at all.

          Yusuf May I help you?

            Registration of users is required before anyone can check out or return something. Otherwise the system has no idea who checked out what. Input and maintenance of the what is in the library's collection is required. You can't search for what isn't there. A security model so that only certain users can do certain things. All users should be able to search, but if all users could mark a book as checked in people would mark it and just keep the book. There are tons of other things that you would need. You should sit down and write some use cases.

              Hello expert, Thank you so much for the great tips. It help alot and I also found the missing part of what I must add. I was thinking that there was a missing piece before I start the system and when I found your humble post to help, the registration of user was the missing one. Again thanks for the help, Goodluck also. Thanks, DAN
