Library Automation & Management Software
Managing a library and its collections is a laborious task for most institutions in Nigeria. The Librarian manually types book information to the system. Patrons /library users go through hassle to register and borrow materials

We understand this challenge and take responsibility by offering a robust and feature-rich Library Automation solution called Activeshelf. Designed with the peculiarities of Nigerian libraries in mind, Activeshelf serves as the bridge that enables libraries to revolutionize the user experience while evolving towards a new and unified library infrastructure. Active-Shelf is a flexible and scalable solution that can adapt to libraries of all sizes, from secondary schools libraries, to research institutions libraries, professional organizations libraries and tertiary institutions libraries such as universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education.
Benefits of Our Library Automation Service
1. Automatic Book Information Retrieval
By simply scanning a book's ISBN using a USB barcode scanner, Active-Shelf searches the internet and automatically retrieves vital information such as cover art, title, author, publisher, and abstract. This information is then cataloged for circulation.
2. User-Friendly Browsing
Librarians and users no longer need to rummage through piles of books. With Active-Shelf, they can browse through book collections on their mobile phones, tablets, or PCs, just like using a regular search engine.
3. Access Anywhere, Anytime
Users and staff can manage their account activities and access library materials from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. Librarians can track owned items, monitor bills paid, and keep track of users who have borrowed and returned library materials.
4. Convenient Search and Request
Patrons can search the library using book titles, authors, or keywords on their smartphones, tablets, or PCs to discover the availability of items they want to use or borrow. They can place requests for items, renew library loans, and settle overdue fines online.
5. Automated Notifications
With the built-in email and SMS notification system, users receive alerts reminding them of due dates to return borrowed library items.
6. Time and Cost Savings
