Fields in a library database might include title, author, publication date, genre, ISBN number, availability status, and location in the library. Additional fields could include book summary, shelf number, keywords, and borrower information.
A simple field in this database would be the name of students, though first and last names are often separated into two fields.
Database management software
A relational database is a database that contains tables linked by common fields. These common fields are used to establish connections between the tables and to retrieve related data across multiple tables using queries.
Today database is used in every field. In library all the records are maintained in the database like no. of books in library and their categories, isuue of a book, returning a book etc.
Database is used so that people can be able to access e-books, journals using Databases such as Ebcohost, Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC). from L.Malangeni
This is a part of the scope of work that specifies the fields used in the database tables and offers definitions to these fields; their foreign key relationships, etc.

A database has elements called records which refer to meaningful things that you want to maintain. For example in a data base of your acquaintances, you might wish to maintain the addresses of people you know. A record might consist of a mailing address for a person. The key to the record might be the person's full name. rather than just keeping the address as a single field, we may wish to divide the address record into fields that are maintained as part of the record. The fields might be Street Address, City, State and Zipcode. Because we have separated the parts of the address into fields, we can ask questions like "Give me the full address of all people I know in Maryland." How we define the contents of records into fields ultimately determines the overall utility of the data base to provide the information we need.
Yes, Excel can be used as a database but not to the same extent as other applications. It is primarily a spreadsheet application, so it does not have all the facilities you might want if you are creating a database. Something like Oracle or MySQL or Microsoft Access are better suited to be used as a database.
the name of the book or the name of the librarian it depends if you mean the library in which case it would be the book title or if your talking about the actual llibrarian then it would be something like their name, age and address
An ER-Diagram is used for developing databases. But if you want us, to develop an database for an library management system - then you are at the wrong forum.
The ADO Recordset object is used to hold a set of records from a database table. A Recordset object consist of records and columns (fields). In ADO, this object is the most important and the one used most often to manipulate data from a database
