# Library_Management_System
The Library Management System is a project aimed at creating an efficient system for managing a library's operations. This system allows users to issue books, search for different books and their titles, and provides detailed information about the books available in the library. By automating these processes, it eliminates the need for manual record-keeping and offers a user-friendly experience.
## Project Idea
The main objective of this project is to develop a comprehensive library management system that simplifies the management of books within a library. This system maintains a centralized database of books, including their details such as title, price, status, and the total number of books available. It streamlines the borrowing process and provides users with easy access to information, making it an efficient alternative to the traditional manual recording system.
