The Library Management System is a project designed to efficiently manage and organize a library's resources. The system caters to two distinct roles: librarian and member. It aims to streamline the processes involved in book management, borrowing, returning, and member profile management.The Library Management System aims to improve the overall efficiency and effectiveness of library operations by providing a user-friendly interface for librarians and members.

Before installing and using this project, ensure that you have the following requirements in place:

• Java Development Kit (JDK): Make sure you have Java JDK installed on your system. You can download it from Oracle's website.

• MySQL Database: This project uses MySQL as the database backend. Install and set up MySQL on your system. You can download MySQL from MySQL's official website.

  Note: During the installation process, make sure to take note of the MySQL server hostname, port number, and credentials (username and password) for configuring the project.

• Eclipse IDE: Install Eclipse, an integrated development environment (IDE) for Java development. You can download Eclipse from the Eclipse website. Choose the appropriate Eclipse package for your operating system and Java development needs.

  Note: Ensure that you have Java JDK installed before installing Eclipse, as Eclipse relies on Java to run.

• JDBC Driver: This project uses JDBC to connect to the MySQL database. Make sure you have the appropriate JDBC driver for MySQL. You can download the MySQL JDBC driver from MySQL Connector/J.

• JCalendar: This project requires an additional Java library called JCalendar for advanced functionality. Download the JCalendar JAR file from JCalendar's Download Page. Add the downloaded JAR to your project's classpath.

  Note: Make sure to check the specific version requirements and dependencies of the JCalendar before downloading.

You can download the whole database file at resources/database and import it to your Mysql using `Mysql Workbench` or `mysql` command-line tools.

Note: You can check table structure and data in library_table_struct.sql and library_data.sql

• Fork the repository and clone it to your local machine.
• Run Main.java under src/library in your IDE to start the program.

  Note: To log in as a librarian or member, you need to check the database for the required data.
