Task Case Study: ABC university is looking to add IT equipment and facility reservation system to the Library Management System. The system will allow students and staff to be able to reserve different IT equipment and facilities. Some of the facilities and equipment can only be reserved by staff. All the reservations will require approval by the library admin. All equipment and facilities have a certain cost associated. As a system analyst, you are required to analyse and design a reservation system to add to the library system that should be able to perform tasks such as checking for availability of equipment and resources, calculating the due dates and other booking related transactions. Library admin should be able to add and remove new equipment and facilities to the system and also be able to change the rates. They should also be able to modify any special conditions associated with each of them.
