first identify your users let's say you have, seller, buyer and admin
What are the actions that each can perform?
Identify the characteristics of each of these user types.
Identify what are the things going to be in an e-library, books, journals,etc., and identify their properties
You have to keep login records
You may have to ask the user to subscribe, so subscription charges has to be thought of...
what I would suggest is...think of the e-library conceptually..what are the things that would be in an e-library and browse few online e-libraries to get a better idea and come up with the entire list and we would talk about creation of database then.
