Library is a fast growing sector. The existing system for maintaining library transactions is not very efficient. For quick retrieval and storage of data is required. An appropriately computerized library will help its users with quick and prompt services. Library automation refers to mechanization of library housekeeping operations largely by computerization. Library Management System (LMS) is an automated system that can be useful to Librarians and the users of a library in any functional organization. Library Management System gives the facility to define the tasks of the librarians and also allows its users to manage their activities to and from the library. A report generation facility is supported in LMS that allow its users to keep an account of their transactions in the library. This tool can help librarians to effectively save time and carry out other important works of the library rather than just looking out after the issuing and returning. This project aims at creation of a Library Log. This project will be accessible to all users of the library and its facility allows librarians to maintain a hassle free database while letting its users to themselves manage their own transactions individually thereby solving all major issues of having a huge database in the form of hard material.

Abstract This paper firstly introduces the main content of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and proves that it can transmit information among the users, the developers, the designers and the managers efficiently, which improves their collaboration capabilities and greatly increases the degree of industrialization in software development projects. Secondly, a library management system development and design is carried out, based on UML modeling mechanism to analyze a simple library management system. Thirdly, a demand analysis mode of the management system is built with the help of a case diagram and an analysis diagram after analysis of a simple library management system, using UML modeling mechanism. Then a book lending management subsystem has been designed in the library management system by a design class diagram and a sequence diagram. The design process indicates that as a modeling language of software engineering, UML has a very good application prospect.

Between Senayan Library Management System or usually called SLiMS and e-DDC (electronic Dewey Decimal Classification) now is the most popular library application software which has a lot of user, because it is simple to use, has an updating guarantee from its developers and off course both of them are free of charge. Although SLiMS and e-DDC are different application at all, as practically they are recommended to be used togather for library management. SLiMS is used for library automation and e-DDC is to find collection’s classification. Many users of SLiMS and e-DDC ever give suggestions about developing SLiMS with e-DDC include in its database, and then librarians will be easier to manage their libraries. Because of that suggestion, finally a plugin as an additional application for SLiMS has been created and developed. That plugin was build with PHP language programming and MySQL database. The purpose of this paper is to enrich about reference of development of library application, especially those based on Free Open Source Software (FOSS). This paper use Research and Development Methods. And the result of this paper is Plugin e-DDC for SLiMS which has released on May, 2nd 2015, in order to celebrate “National Education Day”.

Senayan Library Management System, usually called as SLiMS dan e-DDC (electronic Dewey Decimal Classification), is an application for library that now is used widely because it is easy to use, guaranteed of updating from the provider, and free. SLiMs and e-DDC is actually two separated application, but in the practice, it is possible and recommended to be used together. SLiMS is used as a tool of library automation, meanwhile e-DDC functions to help finding collection classification number. Some users of SLiMS and e-DDC have suggested to develop SLiMS that is integral with e-DDC, so the use of both application can be practical which can make the librarian easier to manage the library. Based on the suggestion, the writer and e-DDC team finally created and designed additional application which is called plugin in SLiMS automation system that contained e-DDC. The plugin was created using PHP MySQL and MySQL database. The purpose of this paper is to enrich the reference of library application development, especially that is based on Free Open Source Software (FOSS). The method used is Research and Development method. The result was the Plugin e-DDC for SLiMS was finished and released on May 2, 2015 to celebrate National Education Day.

<p class="Abstrak">Pembuatan produk harus didasari oleh kebutuhan dan dievaluasi untuk memperoleh data yang baik dari pengalaman pengguna. <em>User Experience </em><em>Questionnaire </em>(UEQ) sebagai metode evaluasi memiliki enam skala penilaian yaitu daya tarik, kejelasan, efisiensi, ketepatan, stimulasi, dan kebaruan. Selain itu metode evaluasi ini memiliki 26 pertanyaan berupa pasangan atribut yang bertolak belakang. <em>E-library</em> Institut Teknologi dan Bisnis STIKOM Bali menggunakan sistem otomasi perpustakaan SLiMS (Senayan <em>Library Management System</em>) yang penggunaannya belum dilakukan evaluasi. Hal ini penting guna mengetahui <em>user experience</em> dari produk tersebut serta memberikan saran perbaikan yang diperlukan. Secara rata-rata telah didapatkan hasil yang positif dari 75 responden. Berdasarkan nilai daya tarik (0,85), efisiensi (0,96), ketepatan (0,85), dan stimulasi (1,08), memiliki nilai rata-rata impresi di atas 0,8. Nilai kejelasan (0,71) dan kebaruan (0,71) memiliki hasil netral karena memiliki nilai rata-rata impresi yang berada diantara -0,8 hingga 0,8. Hasil perbandingan <em>benchmark</em> dengan data 246 produk dari UEQ, yang dinilai berdasarkan daya tarik, efisiensi, ketepatan, dan stimulasi, menunjukkan produk<em> </em>tersebut berada di antara 25% produk dengan penilaian lebih baik dan 50% produk dengan penilaian yang menurun. Sudut pandang lainnya, nilai kejelasan dan kebaruan berada di antara 50% produk dengan penilaian lebih baik dan 25% produk dengan penilaian yang menurun. Perbaikan yang disarankan pada nilai kebaruan untuk meningkatkan kreativitas dan inovasi guna menghasilkan sesuatu yang berbeda dari produk sejenis namun tetap menghasilkan <em>user experience </em>yang baik. Kejelasan tampilan dinilai sudah cukup baik namun disarankan untuk lebih ditingkatkan dan perbaikan pada kata-kata petunjuk yang terdapat pada <em>interface. </em>Tampilan diupayakan lebih sederhana sehingga produk mudah untuk dipahami dan dipelajari serta dapat lebih memudahkan pengguna dalam penggunaannya.</p><p class="Abstrak"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p class="Abstrak"><em><em>Product manufacture must be based on needs and evaluated to obtain appropriate data from the user experience. The User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) as an evaluation method has six rating scales: attractiveness, clarity, efficiency, accuracy, stimulation, and novelty. Besides, this evaluation method has 26 questions in the form of pairs of different attributes. E-library InstitutTeknologi dan Bisnis STIKOM Bali uses the SLiMS (Senayan Library Management System) library automation system, of which the users have not evaluated. The evaluation is necessary to obtain data about the user experience and provide suggestions for improvements. On average, there have been positive results from 75 respondents. Based on the value of attraction (0.85), efficiency (0.96), accuracy (0.85), and stimulation (1.08), it has an average impression value above 0.8. The value of clarity (0.71) and novelty (0.71) has a neutral result because it has an average impression value, between -0.8 to 0.8. The benchmark comparison results consist of 246 data products UEQ, based on attractiveness, efficiency, accuracy, and stimulation were among the 25% products with better ratings and 50% products with lower ratings. On the other points of view, clarity and novelty scores range from 50% of products with a better rating and 25% of the products with a lower rating. The suggested improvements to the novelty value are to increase creativity and innovation to produce something different from similar products but still produce a good user experience. The clarity of the display is acceptable. However, improvement is recommended, especially on the wording instructions contained in the interface. A simple appearance is necessary so that the product is easy to understand and learn and can make it easier for users to use it.</em></em></p>

The progress of the library automation system (Library Management System) in the library has now been carried out, especially during a pandemic that requires maintaining distance and face-to-face contact. Starting from that thought, the UNISMA community service team is interested in holding library NGO (Library Management System) training activities Web-based BJ School. This BJ Scholl library website serves to present various information on books, journals and magazines, history and school vision and mission, member data, online book lending and book return data. Apart from the web, it also displays a link feature with several online libraries from several agencies. The training was carried out offline for 1 day and continued with online discussions. The training begins with the introduction of several topics about the website, followed by downloading and installation. Prior to the training, 100% of the participants had never created a website, either with wordpress or with other applications. And after the training, 60% of the participants have been able to apply website creation for their library. Some of the participants were constrained by a slow network and computer damage, so they were late in following the material given. All participants stated that this training was very useful.

This research examined the problems of the tourism sector of the economy, that was described from the perspective of potential informatization. The features of the tourism industry functioning were reflected, some proposals were put forward regarding the design and development of an automated management system, and the geographical affiliation of the research areas were indicated. The tourist and recreational complex was proposed to understand as a separate component of the tourism industry, and was accordingly accepted as the object for the projected automated system. The authors had refined the formulation of the term "tourist and recreational complex" as a complex socio-economic system based on the problems and possibilities of it’s informatization. Sufficient attention was paid to the identification of the characteristic features of the tourist and recreational complex, to the designation and addition of its functions, to the possibilities and difficulties of formalization. Some features and problems of the designing an automated control system were described in this research, there were also suggests about its conceptual structure, and outlines the for further research. Special attention was paid to the developing of the automated system for managing the tourist and recreational complex, based on the requests, needs and capabilities of its three main groups of users: regional (district) management, business and guests (tourists, recreants).
