📚 Library Management System

Python CLI Application

A command-line based Library Management System developed as part of my Python Internship Capstone Project.

---

📖 About the Project

The Library Management System is a Python-based Command Line Interface (CLI) application that helps librarians manage books, members, and borrowing records efficiently.

This project was developed as part of my internship to demonstrate Python programming, file handling, modular programming, authentication, and exception handling.
