Most ILS is separate software functions into discrete programs called modules, each of them integrated with a unified interface. Examples of modules might include: acquisitions (ordering, receiving, and invoicing materials), cataloging (classifying and indexing materials) circulation (lending materials to patrons and receiving them back) serials (tracking magazine and newspaper holding) and the OPAC (Public Interface for users). Each patron and item has unique ID in the database that allows the ILS to track its activity. Larger libraries use an ILS to order and acquire, receive and invoice, catalog, circulation (like churches or synagogues, for instance), often forgo the expense and maintain required to run an ILS, and instead use a library computer system.
