Library Management System using C++
Posted by Samath
Last Updated: January 07, 2021

A Library Management System is an enterprise resource planning system for a library, used to track items owned, orders made, bills paid, and patrons who have borrowed. In this Library Management System project, you can enter the record of new books and retrieve the details of books available in the library. You can issue the books to the students and maintain their records. Late fine is charged for students who return the issued books after the due date. Only one book is issued to students. News books are not issued to students who have not returned the last book. please note that before you issue or return books which is options 1 and 2, add a book and a student to the database first (options 3 and 4). This Library Management System was written using the C++ programming language.
