# πŸ“š Library Management System (LMS) - SQL Project πŸ“Š

Welcome to the **Library Management System (LMS)** project! πŸŽ“ This project demonstrates how to create a fully functional library management system using **SQL**. The goal is to manage library operations like **book records**, **user management**, **borrow/return transactions**, and more using SQL queries and database design techniques.

---

## πŸ’‘ Project Overview

The **Library Management System** is designed to handle day-to-day library tasks with ease by managing:

- πŸ“š **Books and Resources**: Adding, updating, and deleting book records.
- πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ“ **Students/Members**: Registering new users and managing membership details.
- πŸ”„ **Transactions**: Borrowing and returning books, tracking due dates.
- πŸ“Š **Reports**: Generating summaries of overdue books, user activity, and stock availability.

This project provides an efficient way of organizing and retrieving library data using **SQL** as the database backbone.

---

## πŸ› οΈ Technologies Used

- **SQL**: The core technology used to create tables, relationships, and perform CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
- **Database Management System**: MySQL, PostgreSQL, or any other SQL-compatible DBMS.
- **ER Diagram**: Visual representation of the database structure to demonstrate relationships between entities.

---

## 🎯 Features

- πŸ“š **Book Management**: Add, remove, and update book records, including details like author, ISBN, genre, and stock availability.
- πŸ‘₯ **Member Management**: Register new members, update their details, and manage their borrowing activity.
- πŸ”„ **Transaction System**: Issue and return books with automatic due date and fine calculation.
- πŸ•’ **Overdue Tracking**: Query overdue books and notify users for returns.
- πŸ“Š **Reports**: Generate reports for library statistics, such as the most borrowed books and member activity logs.

## πŸ—ΊοΈ ER Diagram - Library Management System

Below is the **Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD)** of the **Library Management System**, which visually represents how entities like books, members, and transactions are connected.

## πŸš€ How to Use

1. **Clone the repository** to your local machine:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/sushant98k/Library_Management_system_SQL.git
```
2. **Run the SQL scripts** in your preferred SQL environment:
- `create_tables.sql`: Creates the necessary tables for the LMS.
- `insert_data.sql`: Populates the tables with sample data.
- `queries.sql`: Contains useful queries for various library operations.
3. **Execute Queries**: Use the provided SQL queries to interact with the system, such as adding new books, managing members, and processing book loans.

---

## πŸ”§ Future Enhancements

- πŸ–₯️ **Front-End Integration**: Build a simple UI to interact with the SQL database.
- πŸ”„ **Advanced Search**: Implement advanced search options with filters for genres, authors, or publication dates.
- πŸ“¦ **Backup/Restore System**: Add functionality to back up and restore the database.
- πŸ’» **Cloud Database**: Deploy the system using a cloud-hosted database service like Amazon RDS or Google Cloud SQL.
