Features

Everything your library runs on, in one place

Ten connected modules that cover a book from the day it arrives to the day it comes back, and a reader from sign-up to renewal. Every plan includes all of them.

Cataloguing

A clean, searchable record of every book you own, and of every copy of it.

  • Title, author, publisher, ISBN, edition, year, language, category and description
  • Any number of copies per title, each with its own accession number, barcode and shelf
  • Printable barcode labels for the spine or inside cover
  • Cover photos, resized and optimised automatically
  • Copies marked lost, damaged or withdrawn stay on record

Circulation desk

Issue, return and renew with a barcode scan.

  • Scan the member card and the book barcode, or type the codes
  • Works with any USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner, or a phone camera in Chrome
  • Borrowing limits and loan periods come from the membership type
  • Renewals up to the limit your library sets
  • Loans list with an overdue tab, and lost-book handling with a replacement charge

Members

Everything about your readers, organised and private.

  • Member codes and printable library cards with photo and barcode
  • Membership types with their own fee, deposit, validity and loan rules
  • Ready-made types: General, Student, Senior Citizen, Child and Reading Room
  • Membership renewals at the desk, or online by the member, with the fee recorded
  • ID proof type with only the last 4 digits kept

Fines & payments

Fair, automatic fines, and simple ways to pay them.

  • Per-day overdue fines with grace days and an optional maximum
  • Charges for lost and damaged books
  • Desk payments by cash, UPI or card, each with a numbered receipt
  • Members pay online to your UPI ID, or through your PhonePe Payment Gateway
  • Membership and reading-room fees are paid the same ways, and renew themselves once paid
  • Admins can waive a fine with a recorded reason

Library website & online catalogue

Every library gets its own website, ready on the day it signs up.

  • One-page website: home, about, opening hours, membership plans, new books and contact
  • Search by title, author, ISBN, category or language, with live availability
  • Your logo, cover photo and colour theme, a map and a WhatsApp button
  • Contact form messages arrive in your library panel
  • Its own address, for example librospire.in/your-library

Member account

Readers manage their loans from their own phone.

  • Members sign in with their library card number
  • See books on loan, due dates, fines and fees
  • Renew loans, reserve books and renew their membership online
  • Pay online when your library turns it on, with every receipt ready to print or save as PDF
  • A digital library card with a barcode the desk can scan
  • Save books for later, ask the library to buy a book, and update their own contact details

Reading room seats

Rent study seats by shift and by month, with no double bookings.

  • Numbered seats in sections, and shifts with their own monthly fee
  • A seat chart for any day: free, booked, unpaid and ending this week
  • Overlapping shifts, like Full day and Morning, never share a seat
  • Members ask for a seat and renew it from their account
  • Fees paid at the desk or online, and a WhatsApp reminder before a seat ends

Reservations

A fair hold queue for your most popular books.

  • Members join a queue when every copy is out
  • A returned copy is held for the next member in line
  • Email when the book is ready to collect
  • Pickup window that you set, then the hold moves on

Email reminders

Books come back on time when readers are reminded.

  • Before a book is due, and once it is overdue with the fine so far
  • Before a membership expires
  • When a reserved book is ready
  • Turn reminders off for your library at any time

Reports

See how your library is used, for any date range.

  • Books issued and returned, borrowers and overdue books
  • Daily circulation chart, most borrowed books and most active readers
  • Fines collected and waived, and membership numbers
  • Download loans, payments, fines and members as CSV, which opens in Excel

Made for every role

The right tools for each person in your library

Library admin

Sets up the library, membership types, fine rules, the website and online payments, pays for the plan and reviews reports.

Librarian

Runs the circulation desk: adds books and members, issues and returns, collects fines and handles reservations.

Member

Searches the catalogue, reserves and renews books, renews their membership and seat, and pays online.

Security & privacy

Your readers' data stays safe and private

Public libraries look after sensitive information. Librospire keeps every library's data separate, limits access to the people who need it, and sends payments straight to the library.

Isolated library data

Each library can only ever see its own books, members and records.

Private ID proofs

Aadhaar and other ID numbers are never stored in full: only the type and the last 4 digits.

Role-based access

Admins, librarians and members each see only what they need.

Secure connection

Every page is served over HTTPS, and passwords are stored only as secure hashes.
