In recent years, with the improvement of computing level, it is possible to provide personalized recommendation lists for users based on user behavior. Increasing number of books in library in university has an urgent demand for personalized book recommendation. A model is established by author using collaborative filtering algorithm, and targeting students who have never borrowed books from the library.
