# Book Loan Management System
## Overview
The Book Loan Management System is a software solution designed to manage book-related information in a library or book loan system. It includes features for handling authors, book categories, book copies, and more. The project utilizes a SQL Server database for backend data storage and a Visual Studio Windows Forms application for the frontend.
## Project Structure
The project is organized into the following main components:
- **Backend:** Contains SQL scripts and queries for creating the database tables and managing data. All SQL files are located in the `Backend` folder.
- **Frontend:** Consists of the Visual Studio Windows Forms application. The forms and associated code files are available in the `Frontend` folder.
## Database
The Book Loan Management System relies on a Microsoft SQL Server database for efficient storage and retrieval of book-related information. The database is structured to capture key entities in the book loan process. Below are the main tables and their purposes:
1. **Author Table**
The `Author` table stores information about book authors. Each author is uniquely identified by an `author_id`. The table includes fields for the author's first name, last name, email, contact number, address, date of birth, and nationality.
2. **BookCategory Table**
The `BookCategory` table manages different categories of books. Categories are identified by a unique `category_id`, and the table includes fields for the category name and any additional details.
3. **Book Table**
The `Book` table contains detailed information about individual books. Each book is assigned a unique identifier (`book_id`) and includes data such as the title, author, category, publication date, ISBN, and other relevant details.
4. **BookCopy Table**
The `BookCopy` table is crucial for tracking individual copies of books and their loan status. Each copy is associated with a unique `copy_id`. Fields in this table include the copy number, book title, current loan status, and borrower information. It facilitates efficient management of book loans and returns.
