Design and Development of Bangka District Regional Library Information System Based on Website

Abstract

This research aims to overcome the challenges faced by the Bangka Regency Regional Public Library (Perpusda) in the book lending process which is still done manually. Currently, visitors must register as members through a system that can only be accessed on-site with the help of library staff, indicating the need for a more efficient solution in managing library data. Thus, this research aims to develop a website-based library information system that can simplify the process of member registration and book borrowing, as well as improve the efficiency of overall library data management.  The system development method used is the Waterfall method, which allows the stages of system development to be carried out in a structured manner, starting from needs analysis, design, implementation, to system testing. The result of this research is the design of a web-based library information system that has been successfully developed. This system has been tested and demonstrated at the Bangka Regency Library, and the results show that the implementation of this system will make a significant contribution in improving the efficiency of library data management. Thus, this library information system is expected to provide great benefits for librarians and library users in accessing and managing information more efficiently.
