This project is an adaptation of the LSMS created by Nackil Suny and Erin Kim of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.
LSMS is a stacks management system broken down into two parts, the scanning interface and the session manager. The scanning interface is paired with a laptop/scanner and used in the stacks, scanning books one by one. The session manager is responible for processing all of the backend data and generating reports. The greatest advantage of the system is the immediacy and engagement.

LSMS uses common open source web application components, including the Apache web server, PHP scripting language, and MySQL database. LSMS also relies on the fact that you are a Voyager library running Oracle databases. PHP specifics: PHP 5, PECL OCI8 >= 1.1.0.
Unzip the LSMS directory into your webroot folder so it could be accessed here: http://library.state.edu/LSMS (or a similar fashion).
