Introduction
The Library Management System project automates the manual processes involved in a library, like
adding books, issuing them, and managing user data. Using Java programming, the project aims to
enhance the accuracy and efficiency of school library operations. The system integrates OOP
principles for seamless functionality.

Objective and Scope
The primary objective of this project is to simplify library operations while reducing errors. The
system ensures efficient management of book records and transactions.
Scope:
1. Handle multiple book and user records.
2. Simplify transactions like issuing and returning books.
3. Provide detailed error messages and success logs for better debugging.

Theoretical Background
This project is built using Java, leveraging concepts like:
1. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism are
extensively used.
2. Java Collections: ArrayLists store book records dynamically.
3. Java I/O: Files are used to persist book and transaction data.

System Design
The design includes classes for books, library operations, and a main manager for handling
transactions.
Flowchart for main operations is included below.

System Implementation: Code Snippets
Key classes and methods are implemented as follows:
1. `Book` Class:
Represents a single book.
2. `Library` Class:
Handles book transactions.
3. `LibraryManager` Class:
The main program handling user interactions.

Sample Code: Book Class
public class Book {
private int bookID;
private String title;
private String author;
private boolean isIssued;
public Book(int bookID, String title, String author) {
this.bookID = bookID;
this.title = title;
this.author = author;
this.isIssued = false;
public int getBookID() { return bookID; }
public String getTitle() { return title; }
public String getAuthor() { return author; }
public boolean isIssued() { return isIssued; }
public void setIssued(boolean issued) { isIssued = issued; }

Sample Code: Library Class
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Library {
private ArrayList<Book> books;
public Library() {
books = new ArrayList<>();
public void addBook(Book book) {
books.add(book);
System.out.println("Book added: " + book.getTitle());
public void displayBooks() {
for (Book book : books) {
System.out.println("ID: " + book.getBookID() + ", Title: " + book.getTitle() + ", Author: " +
book.getAuthor() + ", Issued: " + book.isIssued());
