# LibraLink - Revolutionizing the Library Experience
In an era of technological advancements, the **LibraLink** project aims to revolutionize the library experience at NIT Patna. This innovative application seeks to bridge the gap between traditional library services and modern digital convenience.

This README outlines the motivation, objectives, and scope of the project, offering insights into how **LibraLink** can reshape the way our library operates and caters to users' needs.
