Hi Rohit

I would read about moodle and school server XS so you at least know what
has been used in the past.
moodle can be used for managing teacher/student/parent access, curriculum
management (into categories/courses, with competence frameworks and
individual/group learning plans these days), has chat and messaging systems
as well as forums (so you can do synchronous/asynchronous and individual or
select groups), quizzes and assignments, glossaries and databases,
attendance modules (face to face sessions can even email students a
calendar booking), full grade management. There are loads of other features
in moodle, and it is open source with a large community, not only in
development but in teachers, administrators, and users.
You can look at what olpc and sugar users have already done regarding
library management. We put close to 300 books on the school servers that we
put in to deployments, then just gave the kids a link to the directory of
books from moodle front page. But if you want a complete library management
system you could look at Koha integrated library system - it is open
source, http://www.koha.org/
The deployments I went to did not have internet, so we also gave them a
link to get other sugar activities from the front page of moodle on their
school server, with a bunch of activities stored on their school server.
Also some offline wikipedia pages. Much improved situation over no internet
and no books in a school.

These pages haven't been edited in a while, so not sure who is still active
in the sugar community who knows about this. But, the School Server
provides an Apache web server, the PostgreSQL database and Moodle as a
Learning management system.


Kind regards
Tabitha
