Thanks. The main uses will be ..
1. available on www to query catalogue (open to everyone)
2 avail. from the web for teachers and students to check their library account (necessitates an account)
3. available in the library itself both on a web interface (to allow the librarian to check records, add/remove stock etc and to allow people physically present in the library to do 1 and 2 above), and on the barcode reader, for loans and returns.
I've modified a .sql file already found somewhere in an install's source doc... this is it..
It's not much for the moment, but any tips?

It depends how you plan to use it?
Maybe a helpful excercise for you to go through is to come up with some
use cases and see if you are storing all the data you'll need in a way
that makes it easy for you to use.

Here's what I've done: on the backend, two users (in addition to 'pgsql'): dba and 'cdi' (the name of the library, as in the _premises_ where the library is located). I create a database 'library', owned by dba, but with cdi having update privileges (but not 'drop table' etc).
