Module 2 SQL Project

The project involves creating a Library Management System database named LibraryDB, which includes tables for authors, books, and members. Sample data is inserted into these tables to establish a foundational setup, allowing for future enhancements like transaction handling and search functionality. The document outlines the database creation process, table structures, SQL commands, and data querying methods.

Project Scenario: Library Management System

Objective

The goal of this project is to create a Library Management System database that will store
information about books, authors, and members. This will involve creating the database,
defining tables, and populating them with sample data.

Step 1: Create the Database

1. Database Name: LibraryDB


○ This database will contain all tables and data related to the library.

Step 2: Define the Tables

We will create three tables:

● Authors: To store information about authors.


● Books: To store information about books in the library.
● Members: To store information about library members.

Table Structure

1. Authors Table
○ AuthorID (INT, Primary Key, Auto-increment)
○ FirstName (NVARCHAR(50), NOT NULL)
○ LastName (NVARCHAR(50), NOT NULL)
○ BirthDate (DATE)
2. Books Table
○ BookID (INT, Primary Key, Auto-increment)
○ Title (NVARCHAR(100), NOT NULL)
○ AuthorID (INT, Foreign Key referencing Authors)
○ PublicationYear (YEAR)
○ Genre (NVARCHAR(50))
3. Members Table
○ MemberID (INT, Primary Key, Auto-increment)
○ FullName (NVARCHAR(100), NOT NULL)
○ MembershipDate (DATE)
○ Email (NVARCHAR(100))

Step 3: SQL Commands

Now, let’s create the database and tables, and insert sample data.
Create the Database

CREATE DATABASE LibraryDB;


GO

USE LibraryDB;
GO

Create the Authors Table

CREATE TABLE Authors (


AuthorID INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1),
FirstName NVARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
LastName NVARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
BirthDate DATE
);
GO

Create the Books Table

CREATE TABLE Books (


BookID INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1),
Title NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
AuthorID INT,
PublicationYear YEAR,
Genre NVARCHAR(50),
FOREIGN KEY (AuthorID) REFERENCES Authors(AuthorID)
);
GO

Create the Members Table

CREATE TABLE Members (


MemberID INT PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1),
FullName NVARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
MembershipDate DATE,
Email NVARCHAR(100)
);
GO

Step 4: Insert Sample Data

Now we will populate the tables with sample data.

Insert Authors

INSERT INTO Authors (FirstName, LastName, BirthDate)


VALUES
('George', 'Orwell', '1903-06-25'),
('Jane', 'Austen', '1775-12-16'),
('Mark', 'Twain', '1835-11-30');
GO

Insert Books

INSERT INTO Books (Title, AuthorID, PublicationYear, Genre)


VALUES
('1984', 1, 1949, 'Dystopian'),
('Pride and Prejudice', 2, 1813, 'Romance'),
('The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn', 3, 1884, 'Adventure');
GO

Insert Members

INSERT INTO Members (FullName, MembershipDate, Email)


VALUES
('Alice Johnson', '2023-01-15', '[email protected]'),
('Bob Smith', '2023-02-20', '[email protected]'),
('Charlie Brown', '2023-03-05', '[email protected]');
GO

Step 5: Querying the Data

To verify that the data has been added correctly, you can run the following queries:

Retrieve Authors
SELECT * FROM Authors;
GO

Retrieve Books

SELECT * FROM Books;


GO

Retrieve Members

SELECT * FROM Members;


GO

Summary

In this project, we successfully created a LibraryDB database, defined tables for authors,
books, and members, and inserted sample data. This foundational setup can be expanded with
additional features such as:

● Transactions: Handling book loans.


● Search Functionality: Finding books or members.
● Reporting: Generating reports on book availability and member activity.
