OPAC Library Management System program in Java

OPAC Library Management System program in Java :
 
                       Develop a simple OPAC system for library using even-driven and concurrent programming paradigms of Java. Use JDBC to connect to a back-end database.

Procedure  :

1. Create a new Database file in MS ACCESS (our backend) named “books.mdb”.
2. Then create a table named “Library” in it.
3. The table Library contains the following fields and data types,

1. AuthorName – Text
2. ISBN – Text
3. BookName - Text
4. Price - Number
5. Publisher – Text

4. Enter various records as you wish.
5. Save the database file.
6. Next step is to add our “books.mdb” to the System DSN. To do that follow the procedure given below,

1. Go to Start-> Control Panel -> Administrative tools.
2. In that double click “Data Sources (ODBC)”.
3. ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog appears.
4. In that select “System DSN” tab and click the Add Button.
5. Select “Microsoft Access Driver(*.mdb)” and click Finish.
6. ODBC Microsoft Access Setup appears. In the “Data Source name” type “Library”.
7. Click on the “Select” button and choose your database file. Then click ok.

Now your database file gets added to the System DSN. It should look like below,

Now execute the following code “Library.java”.
