# Library Management System

## Overview

This project is a Library Management System built using Java, JavaFX, MySQL, and Hibernate. It is designed to manage the operations of a library, including book borrowing, member management, and transaction tracking. The system provides a user-friendly interface for both administrators and members to interact with the library's resources.

## Features

- **Admin Management**: Admins can manage library branches, books, and member accounts.
- **Member Management**: Members can sign up, sign in, and manage their profiles.
- **Book Management**: Admins can add, update, and delete books. Members can view available books and borrow them.
- **Transaction Management**: Track book borrowings, returns, and due dates.
- **Email Notifications**: Send email notifications for account creation, password changes, and account deletions.

## Technologies Used

- **Java**: The core programming language used for the application.
- **JavaFX**: Used for building the graphical user interface.
- **MySQL**: The database system used to store library data.
- **Hibernate**: An ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) framework used to interact with the MySQL database.

## Project Structure

- `controller`: Contains the controllers for handling UI interactions.
- `dto`: Contains Data Transfer Objects (DTOs) for transferring data between layers.
- `entity`: Contains entity classes representing the database tables.
- `repository`: Contains repository interfaces and implementations for database operations.
- `service`: Contains service interfaces and implementations for business logic.
- `util`: Contains utility classes for email sending and session management.
