Abstract

With the increase of book collections and the expansion of readers' scale in college libraries, how to improve the efficiency of borrowing and returning books has become an important topic in the operation and management of college libraries. This paper analyses the problems of book borrowing and returning efficiency in college libraries from the aspects of process optimization, information technology construction, service innovation, etc., and puts forward the corresponding strategies and practical methods in combination with practical experience, aiming to provide strong support for college libraries to improve the efficiency of book borrowing and returning.
