The purpose of this project was to construct an electronic database which would record a variety of information concerning music owned by the Choral Music Division at WPI. Using this database, an efficient system was designed for the lending out and returning of music. The database, while recording useful data about the musical pieces including historical and practical information, also functioned as a reporting system. Reports could be generated outlining information on students who failed to return their music and how much money they owed the department. This project encouraged the responsible caretaking and returning of music by putting financial responsibility for the music in the hands of the borrowers.
