Background
Loan records were kept in spreadsheets, making overdue tracking manual and error prone.
Problem
Staff could not tell which titles were available, and fine calculation was inconsistent between shifts.
Solution
A role-based Laravel application with barcode-driven circulation, automatic fine rules and a reporting module for collection usage.
Features
- Barcode scan checkout and return
- Automatic overdue fines
- Member self-service portal
- Collection usage analytics
- Bulk catalogue import
Architecture
- 1Laravel MVC with service layer
- 2MySQL relational catalogue schema
- 3Queue worker for notification emails
Challenges
- Migrating a messy spreadsheet catalogue required a deduplication pipeline.
Lessons Learned
- Data migration is the project, not a task inside the project.
