Problem
A system is required to replace the paper-based record keeping system of a library. The current library records consist of two files, one for the books available and the other for the registered users. The required system should allow the librarian to record the titles currently on loan to a particular user. Also, the librarian can add and remove borrowers from the system. The senior librarian can add new books to the system (title, author, etc.), and remove books that are no longer available. The system should support multiple copies of books. The system should calculate the fines due on overdue loans, and generate reminders to borrowers when books are more than two weeks overdue. Borrowers are allowed to reserve books that are not currently available. The only part of the system that the borrower can interact with directly is the reservation system.
