They want to reduce the number of librarians to save cost, and keep just a few librarians to help with more important tasks such as help customers with sophisticated searches, and answer academic questions. According to Paul Cope, Libraries wanted to change, but they did not like to change much. For example, they opposed the feature of allowing patrons to develop a list of books they had read and the authors they would like to read because they did not want to deal with the legal of a third party
An automated library is one where a computer system is used to manage one or several of the library's key functions such as acquisitions, serials control, cataloging, circulation and the public access catalog. When exploring the history of library automation, it is possible to return to past centuries when visionaries well before the computer age created devices to assist with their book lending systems. Even as far back as 1588, the invention of the French 'Book Wheel' allowed scholars to
Brief History of Library Automation: 1930-1996 An automated library is one where a computer system is used to manage one or several of the library's key functions such as acquisitions, serials control, cataloging, circulation and the public access catalog. When exploring the history of library automation, it is possible to return to past centuries when visionaries well before the computer age created devices to assist with their book lending systems. Even as far back as 1588, the invention of
management problem; technology applications need a lot of research and planning to be effective. While automating records can be a valuable tool, there are challenges to integrating these technological devices into a record system. Tennessee State Library and Archives states that, a records centre is, “an interim storage and retrieval facility where inactive records of more than one agency may be administered on behalf of such agencies and may be stored and retrieved conveniently, economically, and
Abstract— This paper gives details about web-based department automation system which will be implemented at educational institution level for maintaining faculty details and records. The proposed application aims at providing efficient and hassle-free working environment for faculty of the organization as it reduces the amount of paperwork involved. This system is based on the modern approach of data mining and web technology which overcomes the drawbacks of existing manual method used by the
a step further and automation was born. Automation is automatic operation and control of machinery that can carry out decisions without human intervention (Plotkin, 2009). As it is to expect, automation has its conveniences and its downfalls. This form of manufacturing can result in employment problems for society because human labor is not required. However, with the replacement of human workers by technology, higher quality products can be made at a cheaper cost ("Automation," 2010). Therefore
automated boxers and labelers prepare goods for shipping. (Griffin, p. 460) Using automation has allowed Amazon to increase their supply and distribution while encountering fewer errors. Because Amazon has excelled in the arena of operations software, 30 percent of the company’s sales can be attributed to the Amazon Web Services software feature, “which allows independent programmers and merchants to access Amazon’s library of software and adapt it for their own use” (Griffin, 2014, p. 461). From the

which all members of the group agreed on. As a group of five students doing Electrical & Electronic Engineering, a project had to be thought of which was specific to the degree that was being studied. After much deliberation, the idea of a home automation system was agreed upon by the course leader Dr John Barker. After consulting with the course leader, it was learnt that the group had to complete one function within the household each as by doing this, a sufficient amount of work could be done
