Although traditional face-to-face learning sessions are still known as the most effective method of learning, using tools such as the Class Management Systems can provide new learning opportunities. One of the most important applications of this system is its use in libraries and classes. Librarians and professors can increase their interaction with users using the online conversation application and transfer knowledge to them. Online conversation is beneficial for most students because they can have access to more facilities by consuming a shorter amount of time. Such web-based programs can be divided into different categories such as content management system, learning management system, and class management system based on the amount of services they provide (i.e. producing and loading educational content, learning management, performing and correcting educational improvement tests). We aim to introduce the class management system in learning environments and its application in libraries.
