An integrated library system , also known as a library management system , is an enterprise resource planning system for a library, used to track items owned, orders made, bills paid, and patrons who have borrowed.

An ILS usually is constituted of a relational database, software to interact with that database, and two graphical user interfaces. Most ILSes separate software functions into discrete programs called modules, each of them integrated with a unified interface. Examples of modules might include:

Each patron and item has a unique ID in the database that allows the ILS to track its activity.
