Library Management System

The document describes the goals and features of a proposed computerized Library Management System. The system will manage the library's book catalog and track users (borrowers). It will record each book's call number, title, and availability. There are three types of borrowers - undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty - each with their own borrowing limits and privileges. The system will also include a library class to manage books and borrowers.

Library

Management
System
The aim of this
case study is to
design and
implement a
computerized
“Library
Management
System”. The
system will be
used in the back-
office
to manage the
books in the
library catalog and
to keep track of the
various
users (borrowers)
of the library.
Books are
characterized by a
call number, a
title, and a flag that
indicates whether
the book is
currently “on-
shelf” (in the
library) or “on-
loan”. There are
three types of
borrowers:
undergraduate
students, graduate
students and
faculty members.
All borrowers have
an id, a
name and are
associated with a
list of library
books they have
borrowed.
Each borrower
type has different
borrowing
privileges.
Currently,
undergraduate
students may
borrow a
maximum of 10
books for a period
of
4 weeks. Graduate
students may
borrow a
maximum of 20
books for a
period of 6 weeks,
whereas faculty
members may
borrow a
maximum of 30
books for a period
of 8 weeks.
We also want a
library class that
keeps track of
books and
borrowers.
