Usage

Book Management

const Book = require('./src/entities/Book');

// Create a new book
const book = new Book('123', 'The Great Gatsby', 'F. Scott Fitzgerald');

// Check out a book
book.checkOut('Student123');
console.log(book.status); // Outputs: CHECKED_OUT

Study Room Reservations

Overview

This section outlines the functionality for reserving study rooms within the library system.

Code Example

Here is an example of how to reserve a study room using TypeScript:

const StudyRoom = require('./src/entities/StudyRoom');

// Create a new study room
const studyRoom = new StudyRoom('Room A', 5);

// Reserve the study room for a student
studyRoom.reserve('Student456');

// Check availability of the study room
console.log(studyRoom.isAvailable()); // Outputs: false
