Library Management Project

A Java-based Library Management System that allows managing books, members, and transactions in a library.

Features:

• Two types of users: Librarian (full access) and Member (limited access).
• Add and manage books with details like title, author, and genre.
• Add and manage members with basic information and join date.
• Issue and return books, tracking transactions automatically.
• Search books by title or author.
• View all transactions or transactions of a specific member.
• View all members or details of a specific member.
• Member wishlist to keep track of books they want.

This project demonstrates object-oriented programming concepts in Java, including classes, inheritance, and file handling, while creating a functional library system with role-based access
