I work for a small voluntary information provider, and have been asked to
create a simple library management system using Microsoft Access 2000.
(i.e. catalogue, membership and issue) which (if it is successful) is
likely to be made available on the web.
My first problem to solve is to create the database. Has anyone any
experience of using Microsoft Access to create a LMS, and would you be
prepared to share some advice, tips or plain old horror stories to warn us
of the dangers? Although I have (some) experience of using Microsoft
Access, I've found it difficult to find examples of work produced within
libraries to solve traditional library needs. (albeit, an old hard to
obtain book 'Using Microsoft Access : A guide for Librarians, based on
Access 95)
