LIBRARY BACKGROUND
A library is a collection of sources, resources, and services, and the structure in which it is housed. It is organized for use and maintained by a public body, an institution, or a private individual. In the more traditional sense, a library is a collection of books. The term can mean the collection, the building that houses such a collection, or both. However, with the sets and collection of media and of media other than books for storing information, many libraries are now also repositories and access points for maps, prints, or other documents and various storage media such as microform

(microfilm/microfiche), audio tapes, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, and DVDs. Libraries may also provide public facilities to access subscription databases and the Internet. Thus, modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many sources. In addition to providing materials, they also provide the services of specialists, librarians, who are experts at finding and organizing information and at interpreting information needs. More recently, libraries are understood as extending beyond the physical walls of a building, by including material accessible by electronic means, and by providing the assistance of librarians in

navigating and analyzing tremendous amounts of knowledge with a variety of digital tools. The term "library" has itself acquired a secondary meaning: "a collection of useful material for common use," and in this sense is used in fields such as computer science, mathematics and statistics, electronics and biology.

HISTORY

The word derives from the Latin liber (“book”). The origin of libraries lies in the keeping of written records, a practice that dates at least to the 3rd millennium BC in Babylonia. The first libraries as repositories of books were those of the Greek temples and those established in conjunction with the Greek schools of philosophy in the 4th century BC. Today's libraries frequently contain periodicals, microfilms, tapes, videos, compact discs, and other materials in addition to books. The growth of on-line communications networks has enabled library users to search electronically linked databases worldwide. The first two libraries were composed for the most part, of published records, a particular type of library called archives. Archaeological findings from the ancient city-states of Sumer have revealed temple rooms full of clay tablets .These archives were made up almost completely of the records of commercial transactions or inventories, with only a few documents touching theological matters, historical records or legends. Things were much the same in the government and temple records on papyrus of Ancient Egypt.

TYPES OF LIBRARY
Public libraries

The public library (also called circulating library) is a library which is accessible by the public and is generally funded from public sources (such as tax money) and may be operated by civil servants. Taxing bodies for public libraries may be at any level from local to national central government level. Public libraries exist in most nations of the world and are often considered an essential part of having an educated and literate population. Academic Libraries

These libraries are located on the campuses of colleges and universities and serve primarily the students and faculty of that and other academic institutions. Some academic libraries, especially those at public institutions, are accessible to members of the general public in whole or in part.

Research Libraries

These libraries are intended for supporting scholarly research, and therefore maintain permanent collections and attempt to provide access to all necessary material. Research libraries are most often academic libraries or national libraries, but many large special libraries have research libraries within their special field and a very few of the largest public libraries also serve as research libraries.

School Libraries

Support the school's curriculum.

Most public and private primary and secondary schools have libraries designed to support the school's curriculum.

Special Libraries

All other libraries fall into this category

All other libraries fall into this category. Many private businesses and public organizations, including hospitals, museums, research

laboratories, law firms, and many government departments and agencies, maintain their own libraries for the use of their employees in doing specialized research related to their work. Special libraries may or may not be accessible to some identified part of the general public. Branches of a large academic or research libraries dealing with particular subjects are also usually called "special library". Home Libraries Your home library may or may not be as large as your local public library, but a good system of organization will still help you find the book you want quickly. You could take a page and sort books by subject matter. Sections for subjects such as history, technology or fiction might make their retrieval easier.

Private Libraries

A private library is a under the care of private ownership, as compared to that of a public institution, and is usually only established for the use of a small number of people, or even a single person. As with public libraries, some people use stamps, stickers, or embossing to show ownership of the items.

The success of organization depends upon how it represent recognizes, adapts and manages the various organizational environment which can broadly classify mainly in to two categories:

A) External environment B) Internal environment

A scan of external environment in which the firm operates can be expressed in terms of the following factors:

Change in the organization social value and many changes in the economy, changes in the resources available and changes in the market place and so on. Which of this external factor will have particular significant for a specific organization depends on circumstances surrounding that business.

POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT
General political atmosphere, particularly political stability is very important for the successful operation of the business. It covers those factors which restrain or facilitate the business through the government actions. It may include political atmosphere, political parties, government political stability etc. This is the most important influence on the regulation of any business. ? How stable is the political environment? ? Influence the Government Policy / Law on your business ? Government?s position on Marketing Ethics ? Government?s policy on the economy ? Government?s view on culture under religion administration,

Our firm will also be influenced by the political changes. Any government policy related to improve education in the country will affect our library. Today our country is growing at very fast rate so government is giving more attention to the field of education and hence any decision regarding that would affect us.

ECONOMICAL ENVIRONMENT
Nature of demand: Demand of establishing more and more library is increasing day by day, because of the following reasons: More and more people in India are getting education. (1) Because of very costly books nobody can buy them. So library can provided them with those books. (2) Because of small houses students have less space at their home so they can study at library without any noise.

SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT
Social factors include demographic and cultural aspects of the external macro environment. These factors affect customers need and the size of potential market. The factors like population, age distribution and change in awareness are taken into consideration. Above all factors influence the demand for various goods and servises and as ours is the servise of library the above all factors are favourable for establishing the library.

TECHNOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENT
One of the most important aspect shaping people?s lives is technology. The firm which moves with latest technology can excel their growth. Every new technology is a force for “creative destruction”. More over the innovating process always leads to an increase in the investment. Technological inventions are introduced for higher productivity, lower costs and more revenues. Technology refers to sum total of the knowledge providing ways to do things. Organizations must give constant consideration to the manner in which innovations may affect their product and internal operating efficiency. In library we can use latest technology to give maximum satisfaction to the customer. We can use latest computer softwares to keep data about each and every book and infrastructure. provide best

Some of those factors are:

Advantage of Technology – In terms of Economies of Scale New Discoveries & Innovations Speed & Cost of Technology Transfer Rate of Obsolescence

Meaning
According to Leslie Rodger, “Marketing is the primary management function which organizes and directs the aggregate of business activities involved in converting customer purchasing power into effective demand for a specific product or service and in moving the product or service to the final consumer or user so as to achieve the company-set or other objectives.” The word „Marketing? explains that… M: A: R: K: E: T: I: N: G: - Moneymaking must be secondary - Almighty customers must be satisfied - Reasonable rate must be kept for product - Keep an eye on competitor - Easy availability of the product - Thoughtfully advertise the product - Importance of the consumers - Need tremendous changes all the time - Generation of new ideas.

Product
“Product is a bundle of satisfaction that a consumer buys. It is anything, which can be offered to a market to satisfy a want or a need. It represents a solution to customer?s problem.”

It

is

in this context that marketing definition of a product is much more than just what the manufacture understands. Product can be in different form like the service, physical product, person, place, properties, idea, organization, event, experience, information etc. However, the library falls under the category of the service organisation.

Product Levels

In planning its market offering, the marketers need to think through five levels of product. Each level adds more customers? value and the five constitute

Potential Product

Augmented Product

Expected Product

Basic Product

Core Benifit

Core Benefit: The most fundamental level is the core benefit. It is the fundamental service or benefit that the customer is really buying. The Core Benefit of library is to provide peaceful place to study and provide better knowledge through books. Basic product: In this level the marketer has to convert the Core Benefit into Basic or Generic Product. Here the marketer has to put emphasis on satisfying the basic need of the customer.

The Basic Product constitutes the library. Expected Product: At the third level, the marketer introduces an Expected Product, a set of attributes and conditions buyers normally expect when they purchase the product. It is their minimum expectation. The member of the library normally wants to have good infrastructure, ventilation facilities, and noiseless environment. Augmented product: At the fourth level, the marketer prepares an Augmented Product that exceeds customer?s expectation. The Augmented

Product is built up in order to make it competitive and attractive. It offers the additional benefit. The Augmented Product of library is to have digital books and magazine, computers with internet connection, and fully airconditioned library. Potential product: At the fifth level stands the Potential Product, which encompasses all the possible Augmentation and transformation the Product or offering might undergo in the future. Here is where companies search for new ways to satisfy customers and distinguish their offers. Here the innovations play a very important role. The Potential Product for the library is to have as per members? requirement. software

which help members to find the book containing specific topic

Price constitutes one of the most important ingredients of the marketing mix. Any decision made by the management under any other mix of marketing affects the decision of the price of the product and in turns affects the decision of any other mix. Price is the only mix in the marketing mix, which generated revenue for the firm. The sources of revenue in our library are via library membership, internet access, coffee shop, advertising, and reading and through conference hall. After analyzing the price of the competitors, we have adopted a “Going Rate Pricing Method” means we have priced our product somewhere near the prices of the competitors.

Pricing policy
Our main objectives are as follows:SURVIVAL: It is our major objective because we would face intense competition. This is our short term objective; in long run we must learn how to add values to our product. MAXIMISATION OF MARKET SHARE: Our long term objective is to become a role player in this market. We will charge lesser price than our competitors? prices. ANALYZING COMPETITORS PRICES: As we are new in this market, it is not feasible to set higher price than our competitors? prices. Therefore, we need to set the prices lower than our competitors? prices charges of various services offered by us:

For membership in library: Particular Student Others Annual (Rs) 900 1350 Lifetime membership (Rs) 3150 3600

For reading:

Rs 10 per hour

The firm has to leverage the advertisement while operating with location of plant as the biggest constraint. Location of plant and industry means a specific site in the region where the business unit is to be started for selecting location or the pertinent factors influencing the location have to be considered and weighted out very carefully.

Promotion means which marketers talk to existing customers and potential buyers. Simple but," promotion is the marketing communication”. To promote any product or any service, it is essential to decide some of the objectives. The basic objectives of the promotion mix for service may fall under one of the following. Develop personal relations with clients Making a strong impression of competency, honesty and sincerity. It should be able to use indirect selling techniques(creating derived demand or act as a buying consultant) Manage to maintain a positive image by word of mouth Packaging and customisation. Based on above detailed objectives for the promotion of our library we have decided several criteria to implement above objectives.

1

• Advertising

Leaflets Newspapers

Promotional Tools

Advertisment

Sales Promotion

Public Relation

Personal Selling

Direct Marketing

1

• Mission

It is all about seting advertisement goal in the initial stage.we prefer informative advertisement because our aim is to make target market of our library.

When we became popular in our targrt market, we will start persuasive advertising to create liking, preference, conviction and purchase of our product. Our advertising objective depends upon the market situation i.e. the degree of competition.

2

• Money

Factors affecting advertising budget To decide the propotion of budget from total availability of funds. a) Stage in product life cycle : In the initial stage, our advertising budget is high because we are new in industry of Library. Afterwards, it will be low compare to first year.

b) Market share and Consumer base : As we are new in the field of library we have less market share so our advertising budget is high.Gradually, We have a set of loyal members so our budget will decrease. c) Competition: As you can see our library has established in university area so there is a cut throat competition therefore we have to advertise more. d) Advertising Frequency: In the first year our advertising frequency will be high therefore advertising budget will be high later on it will decrease.

3

• Message
Efficiency of message depends upon not only on what is

said but also often more important how it is said. Hence,the message plays an important role in organisation?s image. Our library?s message is know the world better.

4

•Media
Media selection is finding the most cost-effective media to

deliver the desired

number and type of exposures to target

audience.The effect of exposures depends on reach, frequency and impact. Following are the media vehicles that we have selected for our advertisement. 1. Print ads: It includes newspapers, magazines etc … We will give our advertisement in „THE TIMES OF INDIA? newspaper. As it is one of the best selling English newspapers And Cost of advertisement is in print media is very less. 2. Visual media: It covers Film ads, television ads, LCD etc …We will promote our advertise inside library through 4 LCDs.It is the most effective way of dramatic demonstration of advertisement.

5

•Measure

There are basic two ideas to evaluate advertising effectiveness a) Communication effect research b) Sales effect research Communication effect research As customers are important for any services, the effectiveness of advertisement can be made by communicating with them. This method helps in determining whether the advertisement is effective or not. By asking various questions like “Rate our advertisement”, we can get feedback of people.We have also prepared different advertisement and measured its effects by portfolio method and found best one.

Sales effect research We can come to know about the advertisement effectiveness for our Library by finding various information about number of visitors, number of books issued uses of cafe and internet made by

customers etc. By comparing this details with that of other years we can measure the sales effectiveness.

\

It is rightly said that, “employees present the organization to the customer and a service company can be only as good as its people". Employees are essentially the contact personal with the customer. They play an important role in the marketing. Operations of service organization like us investing in a quality people means investing in the quality product of a service. People at our library believe that “People are hired for what they know but fired for how they behave”. “The excitement, the energy and the can do attitude of the team motivates the staff everyday.” “There is room for growth at every level” “Our contributions are valued, our voices are heard and the learning never ends.” Our culture Employees are encouraged to be participative with suggestions to improve their workspace in particular and the company at large. The company prides itself in an open door policy that allows every member of the team to access the Management head regarding any proposals or problems. The organization encourages the entrepreneurial spirit amongst all employees to implement a lifestyle of vision.

Recruitment and selection process

Thus the need for right people, in the right place at right time is also increasing. In order to meet the demand for efficient and effective workforce, fm station has adopted the correct recruitment and selection procedures. At our library we don?t compromise on the quality of our organization team We try to hire the best of the applicants who will add value to our organization.

Process management assures service availability and consistent quality in service sector where there is no tangible product, the operation management is vital because here the operations management would decide how the process of service delivery would function. Operation management is the interactive that would deliver the service benefit. There are two processes that take place in any library 1. Registration process 2. Book issue process

.

The object of marketer in service industries is“Defining for the service what the service cannot define for itself” Though a customer can?t see a service but definitely he can see various tangible clues of the service offer like facilities, common materials, objects, employers, customers, price etc. on the basis of his perception on the tangible clues the customer makes purchase decisions. Physical facilities are important in facilitating the delivery of services.

conclusion
By doing an extensive research on overall aspects, we came to know the conclusions that subject to the conditions and circumstances that the project is not feasible in short run but if we consider long run then it is feasible. We would finally like to conclude our project with high feeling of having gained enormous knowledge. This task has provided us with the much needed breathe from the minute activities that one has to undergo. This include thanks giving not only to the valued cooperation of the libraries like university library , vidhyapith and our college library that we visited for guidance but also our professors who gave us such wonderful opportunity to learn so much about practical aspect of life. We could say correctly for our guiders, “you inspire it, we develop and stand by it.”
