Library Management System

A '''library management system''' is a '''system''' which

* manages the issuing and returning of '''books'''
* manages the '''users''' of a '''library.'''

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.097cm;"| Now, let us look at our''' web application – the Library Management System.'''

A '''library management system''' is a '''system''' which
