Purpose: This study aims to apply the OBEC library automation system in the library of the Border Patrol Police Schools in the Southern Border Provinces, evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the automated library system for the Border Patrol Police Schools and examine the satisfaction level of using an automated library system for the Border Patrol Police Schools.
Methodology: The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is used for developing the automated library system and the researcher applies the OBEC library automation system in the library of the Border Patrol Police Schools in the Southern Border Provinces. The sample groups were 70 teachers and 240 students of the Border Patrol Police Schools
Findings: The teacher librarians’ need for an automated library system for the Border Patrol Police Schools revealed the need for an automated library system in all aspects at the high level ( = 3.52 ; S.D = 0.86), which the researcher has analyzed and designed by using the OBEC automated library system to develop and customize it to be the automated library system of the Border Patrol Police School in the Southern Border Provinces. The information technology experts evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the automated library system for the Border Patrol Police Schools in all aspects at the good level ( = 4.26; S.D = 0.47), and the user satisfaction of the automated library system for the Border Patrol Police Schools in all aspects at the very high level ( = 4.65 ; S.D = 0.49)
Applications of this study: This research is a guideline for developing an automated library system to support teaching and learning and improve the quality of education of schools in the southern border provinces.
