Digitalization of Catalogue Automation System with Firebase

It can be challenging to access information about books and users quickly. In any Catalogue systems, there is a sizable collection of books and other materials that are available for users to access. For the academic institutions, it serves as the brain. Mistakes can happen during the processing of documenting, cataloguing, and stacking books, and they may not be able to find the books they are looking for. It is difficult to keep track of all the books and users manually. If the book may be misplaced or stolen, this leads to a loss of revenue for the catalogue management system. Automated catalogue administration systems have several advantages, including expensive upkeep, technical challenges, the necessity for training courses, dependency on technology, and customizability. Yet, they also provide several advantages, such as improved information access, data management, and efficiency. The current application is a free and open-source web application developed using the MERN stack and hosts into the firebase up to a server. The goal of this paper is to develop a system that effectively handles all of the activities that take place in the catalogue system, enabling all users to access it whenever it is most convenient for them. Two factor authentications is carried out in the proposed system for handling users, email verification, notifications, book access, returns etc. admin handles security about users and other information to maintain effectiveness, confidentiality, integrity in the proposed system. Firebase is used to deploy the proposed web application and its operability. Real time updates, analytics are part of the proposed system
