Manage books, users, branches, bookcases, sections, and full borrow/return workflows with late fines and reporting. Whether you run a small community library or a school/college library, the free version gives you the core tools to operate efficiently. ### Why Choose Library Management System? 📚 **Complete Library Control** — Organize your collection with categories, bookcases, and sections. Add books with details (name, ISBN, author, publication, cover image, stock) and manage your catalogue from one dashboard. 👥 **User & Branch Management** — Manage library branches and LMS users with contact details. Keep track of who borrowed what and from which branch. 📖 **Borrow & Return** — Process book checkout and returns with configurable loan periods. Track every transaction and return condition (normal, damaged, late). Calculate and manage late fines from the return list. 📊 **Reports & Export** — Generate detailed reports with filters and export to PDF, print, or CSV. See borrow history, return history, and key metrics at a glance. 🌐 **Public Library Page** — Display your book collection on the frontend with the[ owt7_library_books] shortcode. Visitors can browse books; logged-in users get a single book page view. Pagination and filters keep the listing tidy. ⚙️ **Flexible Settings** — Configure borrow days, late fines, country, currency, and shortcode options. Multilingual support (English, Hindi, Italian, Spanish, French) and test data import help you get started quickly. 🛡️ **WordPress-Native** — Built with WordPress standards: capability checks, nonces, and sanitization. No coding required to use or customize. ### Perfect For ✔ Schools and Colleges ✔ Small community libraries ✔ Institutions that need a simple, reliable library system ### ✨ Free Version — What You Get ✨ **Dashboard & Organization** * Central dashboard with key stats: total books, stock, users, borrows, returns, and quick links to books, users, bookcases, reports, and settings * Manage categories, bookcases, and sections to organize your physical layout * Assign books to sections and keep your catalogue structured **Book Management** * Add and edit books with name, ISBN, author, publication, cover image, and stock * Manage multiple book copies with accession numbers for individual physical copies * List books with filters; view single book page on the frontend * Test data import tool to try sample categories, books, and users **Users & Branches** * Manage user branches and LMS users with contact details * Dedicated **Library User LMS** role with a separate dashboard experience for library patrons * Link users to branches for clearer reporting **Transactions** * Borrow and return books with a fixed 30-day loan period in the free version * Track checkout and return status; record return conditions (normal, damaged, late) * Late fine calculation and management from the return list * Generate late fine receipts for fee collection records * Full borrow and return history **Reports** * Export DataTables data to PDF, CSV, and Excel for day-to-day record keeping **Frontend & Shortcodes** * Shortcode [owt7_library_books] to display the book collection on any page * Book listing with pagination * Single book page view for detailed book information * Public LMS page for guests and logged-in users to browse, with filters and display settings **Settings & Localization** * Configure late fines, country, currency, labels/texts, public page display, and admin theme options * Multilingual support: English, Hindi, Italian, Spanish, and French * Manage labels/texts for a personalized experience ### Limitations of the Free Version The free edition is designed for smaller libraries and has the following limits: * **Quantity limits:** Up to 30 categories, 30 bookcases, 30 sections, 30 user branches; up to 30 books and 30 LMS users * **Single book per checkout:** One book can be borrowed per transaction (Pro: multiple books per checkout) * **Public page:** Frontend display controls are more limited than Pro, with fewer advanced layout and workflow options * **No data backup/restore:** Backup and restore tool is available in Pro only * **Data tools stay limited:** Free includes basic import/export support, while Pro expands data management, backup/restore, and advanced workflows * **Fixed loan period:** The free version uses a fixed 30-day loan period (Pro: configurable loan periods) * **No WordPress user sync:** One-click sync of WP users into LMS is Pro only * **No self-checkout/self-return:** Users cannot checkout or return books themselves from the frontend (Pro: self-checkout and self-return with optional admin approval) * **No request workflow:** Users cannot submit borrow/return requests from the frontend (Pro: request and approval workflow) * **No clone or bulk operations:** Clone and bulk delete/activate/deactivate for bookcases, sections, categories, and books are Pro only * **Single librarian:** Multi-librarian and role-based permissions are Pro features * **No WooCommerce book store:** Selling eBooks via WooCommerce is available in the full Pro version Upgrading to **Basic Premium** removes quantity limits and adds multi-book borrow/ return, data backup, CSV import, and more.

E’ un ottima soluzione rispetto ai costosissimi sistemi Nazionali che non avremmo potuto permetterci essendo noi un gruppo di volontari NO PROFIT. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0ded0be58ab75d3fafbeebbf9a2f1f3ed29b140d4be57da73c47800f732a34c3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Impressive Library plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/impressive-library-plugin/)󠁿 [shanek001](https://profiles.wordpress.org/shanek001/) 23 Ottobre 2025 Really good and solid plugin! The way it handles bookcases, sections, categories, and books management is very well-structured and easy to use. The admin interface makes organizing books super simple. The addition of shortcodes is a worthy and valuable feature in the free version. Allows quick integration of book listings anywhere on the site without any hassle. One small suggestion: it would be great if you could add filters on the public book listing page, especially filter by category, to help visitors browse books more efficiently. Overall, I am happy to use it. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1abad23cf46a892198cc3816ad4974ba51e7693ffa9311685a008626f4d5348c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Don’t waste your time](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dont-waste-your-time-130/)󠁿 [davewinfield](https://profiles.wordpress.org/davewinfield/) 7 Luglio 2025 2 risposte The free version has stupidly low limits on verything – not enough to test properly even. Documentation is laughable – doesn’t even explain how to show the library on a page. Useless. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/68a31a315b0a3c4d69bcb146f799509b8e3ca222d7a925ef700035eff053ddf3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Looks capable, but no documentation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/looks-capable-but-no-documentation/)󠁿 [whereupon](https://profiles.wordpress.org/whereupon/) 21 Luglio 2024 Looks like it will meet all my requirements for managing a small library, but I really wish there was some kind of documentation to walk through the various ways of adding books (specifically bulk adds), customizing, etc. Documentation is provided for installing the plugin, but it installs just like any other plugin. The forum seems to be abandoned in place…8 posts, no replies from anyone.Decent documentation would take it to 5 stars. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/71207edb52d5061448607a7cc663a3aad6fc34b8595614d0f91d9fc255f5ee7e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-37336/)󠁿 [parambirsinghpunia](https://profiles.wordpress.org/parambirsinghpunia/) 2 Agosto 2023 Outstanding LMS plugin!
