A LAN based GUI Library Management System aptly titled ‘Pustakalaya’ has been developed by the Food and Consumer Affairs Infosys Division of NIC and implemented at the Ministry . The system is a workflow application that automates all library management activities such as members’ registration, accession, cataloguing, book issue and return , new book purchasing etc. A highlight of the software is the extensive search facility over the LAN which allows the users to search through publisher’s name, author, title and keywords etc.
