Abstract

Many educational organizations and universities are using computer based management information system for increasing efficiency of work in the organizations. Library management plays a vital role in academic organizations. Bar code is one of the computer based technology which helps to increase efficiency and speed of the organization effectively and qualitatively. Though each bar code character is represented by a group of bars and spaces, computer based software can easily understand it. Organizations have to implement new technologies to meet goal of the organization. Implementation of bar code technology in the Library of Dr. BATU, is a tool to minimize the time taken at the circulation counter in charging / discharging the reading material. The new technologies may be a bit difficult to be adopted in the initial stages, but in the long run they improve the image of the organization. The paper is a case study based on the bar coding at Dr. BATU. This paper renders on implementation of Bar code technology and the advantages gained from using bar code technology by looking into each work process in the case library. For better understanding of the bar code based library management system, this case study has been conducted. We used a SWOT analysis for getting actual picture of the situation raised after implementation of the bar code system in the library. We also conducted the survey to understand the values added by this system in the library management system. The conclusion has been drawn based on SWOT analysis, cross case analysis, Implementation report and survey.
