Abstract

Due to security situation in Afghanistan traditional paper-based libraries are vulnerable to preserve Afghan knowledge and culture heritage. This paper proposes a robust library management system namely 'e-Ketabtoon'. The architectural landscape is comprised of two layers: server responsiveness capacity and client request capacity. User centered design has been adhered throughout the development of the prototype. Early responses from the lab evaluation indicate positive results. We hope that e-Ketabtoon will bring innovation, efficiency and transparency in the Afghan library management environment.
