Bespoke. Books. Battlestar Galactica.

The plan here is to design and implement, mostly for the sake of practice, an integrated library system for a small library.

It should include:

• 🟠 open web view for patrons
• 🟠 searching by various fields
• 🟠 a locked-down web view for library staff
• 🟢 ability to add new titles
• 🟢 ability to import titles by MARC record
• 🟠 printing receipts
• 🟠 hold management
• 🔴 email notification capabilities
• 🔴 handle fines with Stripe (billing, part 1)
• 🟢 support for multiple locations
• 🟢 support for multiple systems
• 🔴 support for books checked out by staff (no due date)
• 🔴 support for books that need to be weeded
• 🔴 investigate adding bookstore functionality for sale of weeded materials (billing, part 2)

Planned features for V2 release:

• 🔴 support for federated systems

...and probably more. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
