  1. Storing library members' details
  2. This could be computerized by providing a web interface that library staff could use in order to add new members, revoke members' logins, store/enter personal details. The web interface would be connected to a DBMS/SQL database, and would allow for CRUD (Create, read, update, delete).
  3.  
  4. Providing lending and reservation services
  5. This could be computerized by having either an exclusive app or another web interface that would exclusively be accessible by the Chief Librarian, who could then charge fines and deal with the collection of money. Since it would be computerized, there would be no need to manually check if reservations are available or when items are already reserved.
  6.  
  7. Maintain library stock
  8. Maintaining stock would become much easier with a computerized system because it'd automatically keep track of stock and would never require a manual check. It would mean that a week of closure wouldn't be necessary every 6 months since the system would actively keep track of the books and journals rather than requiring human involvement (which provides the benefit of eliminating the possibility of human error).
  9.  
  10. Track usage of the library facilities
  11. A logging system would be able to provide a report on the number of books that were issued that day, week, and month. This would also allow for easy statistics to be drawn up.
  12.  
  13. Would you like customers to be able to view your stock?
  14.  
  15. Would you benefit from a computerized system where the customer can use a computer in the library to browse through available books, filtering by genre, year etc.?
  16.  
  17. Are you more comfortable with a desktop or mobile implementation of the system?
  18.  
  19. Do you currently have a notification system that would notify the librarian of any late items etc. so as to avoid manual checking?
  20.  
  21. What's the average age range of your customers?
