It is intended for demonstration only. The document describes a fictitious online eBook lending library with optional eBook online sales component. The focus is on simplicity rather than depth and completeness, that you may more easily understand the Document features.
1.1. Overview of the E-Library System
This system provides an online portal analogous to a public library where registered patrons can borrow books. The main difference is of course that the books in the library catalog are all in electronic formats which incorporate Digital Rights Management (DRM) enabling the system to “lend” an allowed number of copies to registered users. In addition, when a book has the proper rights, the E-Library can sell patrons a license for a personal copy of the electronic book which they can retain permanently.
1.2. Keywords

DOCUMENT KEYWORD POLARION SEVERITY VALUE MEANING

    With technological evolution of digital media, eBooks and an abrupt rise in tech savvy readers there had been a dire need to understand change in consumer need and fulfil the growing gap. With the failure of its NOOK e-reader, declining tradition hardcover readers and constant pressure by competitor such as Amazon, it is no wonder why it is so difficult for them to compete.

    The e-reader industry is thriving now; and at the expense of the traditional book publishing industry. People are still reading, but they are using different channels, such as the internet, and tablets like the I-pad are crushing the once mighty print industry. “The book publishing industry has entered a period of long-term decline because of the rising sales of e-book readers. For the traditional book publishing industry, the implications of the rise of the e-book and e-book reader markets are frightening, given the decline in paper book printing, distribution and sales (Kolakowski, 2011).” According to Kolakowski, the future does not seem bright for traditional book publishers. “Physical book sales will decline at a compound annual rate of 5 percent. While e-book sales will rise during that same period, the increase won’t cover the revenue gap created by the decline in the physical book market. By 2014, the research note predicts, e-books will occupy some 13 percent of U.S. book publishing revenue, more than twice its current level (Kolakowski, 2011).” Like vultures swarm over…

    From the mid 1990s when Sir Tim Berners-Lee created the World Wide Web and the Internet grew dramatically, it has progressively dominated our lives. The vast volume of information that is now available to us and the ease at which our ideas and documents can be shared, has transformed the way in which we find material and communicate. It has also had a huge impact on business, particularly retail. However, these huge changes inevitably bring with them some negative consequences, particularly those to do with illegal file sharing and risks to privacy.…

    Moreover, E-books can affect the reading habits of people and actually get them to read more. Some people today believe that E-books are going to allow access to so many features that the library will not be needed any longer (“E-books”). Experts believe that some day all reading will be done on some form of computer screen (“E-books”). With the emergence of these E-books, there is more of a chance than ever that printed books will soon fade away (“E-books”). People feel that since e-books can just download the books for a small price, libraries do not even have to shelve the printed books (“E-books”). Experts also believe that there are so many advantages from the E-book that there is no reason to even own printed books (“E-books”). Supporters of the E-book believe that if libraries would upload all their books and materials on the internet, people would benefit more and would easily be able to access all the materials with the E-book (“E-books”).…

    Rapid Application Development (RAD) is a new, highly interactive systems development approach that emerged in the 1990s. RAD is a concept that products can be developed faster and of higher quality. In addition RAD attempts to address both weaknesses of the structured development methodologies, which are: long development times and the difficulty in understanding a system from a paper-based description. RAD methodologies adjust the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) phases to get some part of the system developed quickly and into the hands of the users. What lies beneath this approach is to get the users to better understand the system through interactive and simultaneous revisions, which bring the system closer to what is needed.…
