Welcome to the Library Management System project! This Python-based application allows you to manage books in a library. You can add new books, view the list of available books, and remove books using a simple menu interface. This system is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, making it perfect for library management tasks.
The Library Management System is a simple console application written in Python. It allows users to:
- Add books to a library.
- List all the books in the library.
- Remove books from the library by their unique ID.
The application stores book data in a text file named books.txt, which contains information about each book, such as its title, author, release year, and the number of pages.
This system provides the following features:
- Add Book: Allows you to add a new book with details like title, author, release year, and pages.
- List Books: Displays all books currently stored in the library with their ID, title, author, and number of pages.
- Remove Book: Allows you to remove a book by providing its unique ID.
