Project Name: A Library System

Software To Be Used: VB.Net Windows 2003

Description of Problem:

The Department of Information Systems has a small library. You have been asked to develop a new computer based library system using VB.net. Your program should at least have the following functionalities:

Add a new book into the system

Search a book by subject or by title

Check out a book

Return a book

Exit

Feel free to add any other useful functionality as a part of your system.

(a) Add a new book

This function allows a user to add a new book into the system. Of course, it should allow the user to input the book title, subject(s), and other necessary information about this book. For time being, you may assume that there are three subject areas only: IS Management, IS Technology, and E-Commerce.

(b) Search a book

This system should allow a user to search the system, based on a subject or a title. The system will show the book(s), that can match the search criteria.

(c ) Check out a book

The user can select a book to check out, if such book is available. The number limits for borrowing are as follows:

(1) Teaching staff: 3 books at most

(2) Research student: 2 books at most

(3) General staff: 1 book at most.

The system should refuse the user to check out, if his/her limit has been reached.

(d) Return a book

The user may return a book he/she has borrowed before.

NOTE:

(1) There are a number of users in the system for the testing purpose. For instance, there may be 2 teaching staff, 2 research students, and 2 general staff. Each user should have a password. When checking out, the system should ask the password.

(2) You may use a database or a file system to store necessary data.

You are encouraged to use the VB.Net built-in GUI facilities.
