 Introduction

The advent of technological advancements has revolutionized the

way institutions manage their resources and processes. In the
pursuit of enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility, the
integration of modern technologies into various facets of academic
institutions has become imperative.
The existing manual processes for book inventory management,
user transactions, and administrative tasks were not only time-
consuming but also prone to errors. Additionally, the lack of real-
time updates and accessibility hindered the optimal utilization of
the library's resources. Recognizing these challenges, the internship
project set out to address these issues by leveraging the capabilities
of the ASP.NET framework to develop a University Library
Management System tailored to the specific needs of our
university.
