Community Library Management System (100 Marks)

Instructions:

• Write a complete Python program.


• Use functions throughout your program.
• Use lists where appropriate.
• Apply validation and error handling.
• Screenshots of test runs are not required.

Scenario

A small community library wants a Python system to manage book borrowing statistics and
member activity.

Question 1: Book Borrowing Data Capture (15 Marks)

Create a function called:

def capture_books(book_titles, borrow_counts):

The function must:

• Allow the librarian to enter information for 8 books.


• Ask the user to enter:
o Book title
o Number of times the book was borrowed this month

Validation rules:

• The title may not be empty.


• Borrow count must be numeric.
• Borrow count must be between 0 and 500.

Store the information in two parallel lists:

• book_titles
• borrow_counts

Question 2: Display Library Records (10 Marks)

Create a function called:

def display_books(book_titles, borrow_counts):

Display all books in the format:


Book: Python Basics Times Borrowed: 45
Book: Space Adventures Times Borrowed: 18

Question 3: Borrowing Analysis (10 Marks)

Create a function called:

def borrowing_analysis(book_titles, borrow_counts):

The function must display:

• Total number of borrows


• Average borrow count
• Most borrowed book
• Least borrowed book

Example:

Total Borrows: 240


Average Borrows: 30
Most Borrowed: Python Basics - 56
Least Borrowed: History Today - 4

Question 4: Popularity Categories (20 Marks)

Create a function called:

def popularity_level(count):

The function must return:

Borrow Count Category


100 or more Bestseller
50–99 Popular
20–49 Moderate
Below 20 Low Demand

Display each book with its category:

Python Basics - 120 - Bestseller


History Today - 14 - Low Demand

Also display the number of books in each category.

Question 5: Search Feature (10 Marks)


Create a function called:

def search_book(book_titles, borrow_counts):

The function must:

• Ask the user to enter a book title.


• Search for the title in the list.

If found:

• Display:
o Book title
o Borrow count
o Popularity category

If not found:

• Display:

Book not found

Question 6: String Manipulation (15 Marks)

Create a function called:

def title_processing(book_titles):

For each book title, display:

• Number of words in the title


• Number of vowels in the title
• The title written in uppercase

Example:

Python Basics
Words: 2
Vowels: 3
Uppercase: PYTHON BASICS

Question 7: Menu-Driven System (20 Marks)

Create a menu-driven program that displays the following menu repeatedly until the user
exits:

1. Capture Book Data


2. Display All Books
3. Borrowing Analysis
4. Display Popularity Categories
5. Search for a Book
6. Process Book Titles
7. Exit

Requirements:

• Each option must call a separate function.


• The program must continue running until the user selects Exit.
• Invalid menu options must display an error message.
