Abstract: This research is important since libraries are becoming more technologically advanced. For thousands of people, libraries continue to be the main source of information, even in the age of digital information. This research goal is aimed to provide a smart, easy and user- friendly method for managing library materials using QR code system. Currently, the majority of library management systems need a lot of finance, resources, supervision, and human work. With the implementation of this Quick response (QR) code management system, lots of challenges and efforts is reduced drastically ranging from; money, time, energy and other resources. Users of libraries can access a single application that powers this management system. Users can use the system to issue, return, and manage library materials with little to no help from library staff, thanks to the QR code capability. The developed management system streamlines operations, maintains an audit trail, and increases user accessibility to the library.

Keywords: QR Code, Library, Resources, Smart.
