Implemented a console-based Library Management System using Object-Oriented Programming in C++.
There are 3 usertypes, Student, Professor and Librarian each having various functionalities.
Problem Statement contains the various functionalities in detail.

Instructions to run the code

• Make sure the files libraryManagementSystem.cpp, user.csv and books.csv are in the same directory.
  The .csv files may/may not be empty but make sure there is one.
• To run the code, make sure you are in the same directory as the files on the terminal and give the command :

g++ libraryManagementSystem.cpp -o libraryManagementSystem
.\libraryMangementSystem

• You can see the login details of various people in the user.csv files to login to the system.
  Details in user.csv file are stored in the format: Name,userid,password,usertype,fine. Where usertype=1 for Student, usertype=2 for Professor and usertype=3 for Librarian.
  (There is no fine field in the end for the Librarian).
• Alternately, you can start from scratch by entering a default librarian login detail: username=defaultLibrarian and password=1234 and then proceed to add users and books of your choice from there.
• Enter the index from the menu displayed on the terminal to perform the various operations.
• To login as another user, logout from the current user and run the code again to login again.
• Data entered in a single run is written to the .csv files(saved), so the data is not lost when we logout. It is read back again when run the program.
