What's Included
Everything your library needs
From book cataloging to fine collection — built natively on Odoo with zero external dependencies.
📚
Book Catalog Management
Track every book with title, author, ISBN, genre, language, rack location, cover image, synopsis, and internal notes. Auto-generated reference numbers via ir.sequence.
👥
Member Profiles
Complete member records with photo, contact info, membership type (student/faculty/staff), expiry tracking, and borrow limits. Auto-expiry detection via computed fields.
📋
Issue & Return Workflow
Full lifecycle from Draft → Issued → Returned. Due date tracking, overdue detection, and return processing with real-time status badges.
💰
Fine Management
Automatic fine calculation for overdue books. Track fine amounts, mark fines as paid, and view outstanding dues per member and per issue record.
🏷️
Tags & Rack System
Color-coded tags (Bestseller, New Arrival, Award Winner) and physical rack/shelf location tracking. Filter and group books by any attribute.
🔒
Role-Based Access Control
Three-tier security: Member (read own), Librarian (full CRUD), Administrator (full access + user management). Record rules enforced at DB level.
📊
Multiple View Types
List, Kanban, Form, and Search views for every model. Kanban with real-time availability badges and sidebar filtering by rack and membership type.
💬
Chatter & Activity Tracking
Full Odoo chatter integration on books and members. Log notes, schedule activities, and track field-level changes with the mail.thread mixin.
🔢
Smart Sequences & References
Auto-generated book references (LIB/BK/0001) and issue references using Odoo's ir.sequence. Computed fields for issue counts and active borrows.
