Scenario: Managing a Library Database

You are a database administrator for a small public library. You need to create and manage a database
to keep track of books, members, and borrowing information.

Requirements:

1. Database Creation: Create a database named LibraryDB.

2. Table Creation: Create the following tables with the specified columns, data types, and constraints:

* Books:

* BookID (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)

* Title (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)

* Author (VARCHAR(255))

* Genre (VARCHAR(255))

* PublicationYear (INT)

* ISBN (VARCHAR(20), UNIQUE) (International Standard Book Number)

* AvailableCopies (INT, DEFAULT 1)

* Members:

* MemberID (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)

* FirstName (VARCHAR(255), NOT NULL)

* LastName (VARCHAR(255))

* Address (VARCHAR(255))

* City (VARCHAR(255))

* State (VARCHAR(2))

* ZipCode (VARCHAR(10))

* PhoneNumber (VARCHAR(20))
* Borrowing:

* BorrowID (INT, PRIMARY KEY, AUTO_INCREMENT)

* BookID (INT, NOT NULL) (FOREIGN KEY referencing Books.BookID)

* MemberID (INT, NOT NULL) (FOREIGN KEY referencing Members.MemberID)

* BorrowDate (DATE)

* ReturnDate (DATE)

* DueDate (DATE)

* FineAmount (DECIMAL(10, 2), DEFAULT 0.00)

3. Data Insertion: Insert at least 5 rows of sample data into each of the three tables. Make sure the data
is realistic and consistent. Vary the Genre, Cities and States.

4. Basic Queries:

* Selection with WHERE: Retrieve the Title, Author, and PublicationYear of all books published after
the year 2000.

* Selection with LIKE: Retrieve the FirstName and LastName of all members whose last name starts
with the letter "S".

* Selection with BETWEEN: Retrieve all borrowing records (all columns from the Borrowing table)
where the BorrowDate is between January 1, 2023, and March 31, 2023.

5. Aggregate Functions:

* Calculate the total number of books in the Books table.

* Calculate the average FineAmount in the Borrowing table.

* Find the earliest and latest PublicationYear in the Books table.

6. Joins:
* Retrieve the Title of the book and the FirstName and LastName of the member who borrowed it for
all borrowing records.

* Retrieve a list of books that are currently not borrowed (i.e., not present in the Borrowing table).

7. GROUP BY:

* Determine the number of books in each Genre. Display the Genre and the number of books in that
genre.

* Find the total FineAmount collected from each member. Display the MemberID and the total fine
amount.

8. Data Manipulation:

* INSERT: Add a new book to the Books table with appropriate values.

* UPDATE: Update the AvailableCopies of a specific book (identified by BookID) after a member
returns the book. Increase the AvailableCopies by 1.

* DELETE: Remove a member from the Members table (identified by MemberID). (Careful: You
might need to deal with foreign key constraints first!)

9. Dropping a Table:

* Drop the entire Borrowing table. Then recreate it.

Deliverables:

• SQL statements to create the LibraryDB database.

• SQL CREATE TABLE statements for all three tables (Books, Members, Borrowing).

• SQL INSERT INTO statements with sample data for all three tables.

• The SQL queries for each of the tasks des

cribed above (selection with WHERE, LIKE, BETWEEN, aggregate functions, JOINs, GROUP BY).
• SQL statements for inserting, updating, and deleting data.

• SQL statements for dropping the Borrowing table and recreating it.

This scenario provides a comprehensive exercise in SQL database management, covering essential
operations and techniques.
