Welcome to Cotabato Medical Foundation College, Inc.
Your library, organized and always on.
LibraSys replaces the logbook with one real-time dashboard for cataloging, borrowing, returns, and member records — built for CMFC's staff and students alike.
Everything the library
needs in one dashboard
From cataloging a new arrival to clearing an overdue fine — every workflow is built in, with separate views for staff and students.
Add titles with full metadata — ISBN, publisher, cost, source of funds — and track every copy across the shelves.
Every checkout, return, and cancelled request is logged with a timestamp — due dates and renewals stay in sync.
Students get notified when a hold is ready or a due date is near. Staff are notified the moment a request needs review.
Upload the enrollment roster as a spreadsheet — LibraSys verifies accounts automatically and keeps the list searchable.
Today's borrow history and the most active readers update on the dashboard in real time — no manual reports.
Separate sessions for staff and students mean each dashboard only shows what it should, with no crossed data.
From search to shelf,
in four steps
The same flow whether a student is requesting a textbook or a librarian is processing returns at the front desk.
Look up any title and see live copy availability across the collection.
Submit a borrow or reservation request straight from your dashboard.
A librarian reviews the request — the copy is marked out and a due date is set.
Bring it back to the desk — the return is logged and the account clears instantly.
Two dashboards,
built for two jobs
Library staff get full control over the collection. Students get a simple way to find, borrow, and track books.
