However due to the lack of understanding of the current system, it is hard for the students to search and find the books that they are looking for. Besides that, the current system actually tends to be designed with assumption that the user should have knowledge about the books such as subjects, author and title. Thus the students who not clear what they are looking for might give difficulties to them to search for it. That is explain why most of the student are most likely to do simple search (keywords) compared to advance search (search by title, author, etc.) to find their books.
