📚 Library Management System

A simple and efficient Library Management System developed using Python and Pandas.
The system uses CSV files as a lightweight database to manage books, students, and book issue/return records.

This project demonstrates fundamental concepts of Python programming, file handling, data management, Pandas DataFrames, functions, conditional statements, and CRUD-like operations.

🚀 Project Overview

Managing books and issue/return records manually can be time-consuming and error-prone.

This project provides a simple command-line based Library Management System that allows users to:

  • Add new books
  • Display available books
  • Search for books
  • Issue books to students
  • Return issued books
  • Automatically update book quantities
  • Store data permanently using CSV files

The system is designed to be simple, lightweight, and easy to understand for students learning Python and data management.

✨ Features

📖 1. Add Book

Allows the user to add a new book by entering:

  • Book ID
  • Book Title
  • Author Name
  • Quantity

The book information is stored in books.csv.

📋 2. Display Books

Displays all books currently stored in the library database.

Example:

------ BOOK LIST ------

  Book_ID              Title              Author  Quantity
0    B001       Python Basics       John Smith         5
