Default search help

hi,
i am trying to make my program achive the following:

    * allow a book to be issued to a user
    * allow a book to be returned by a user
    * allow the library staff to search for a book by author, to report whether it is currently in stock or on loan and to indicate in which area of the library it may be found.


any help would be much appreciated thank you.

so far this is what my program looks like:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

const int ACC_MAX = 1000 ;

enum MemberType { Annual, Quarterly } ;

//enum Month { Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Jun,
// Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec } ;

struct Date
{
  int day;
  int month;
  int year;
};

struct Name
{
  string first_name;
  string surname;
};


struct Address
{
  string house_no;
  string streetname;
  string streettype;
  string town;
};

struct libraryMember
{
  Name name;
  Address address;
  MemberType member;
  Date date;
};


void process( libraryMember a )
{
  switch( a.member )
    {
    case Quarterly:
      a.date.month += 1;
      break ;
    case Annual:
      a.date.year += 1;
      break ;
    }
}

void readFile()
{
  // assert( argc >= 2 ) ;
  ifstream clientfile( "clients.dat" ) ;

  libraryMember member[ACC_MAX] ;
  int nRead = 0 ;
  string text;
  int nMember;
  int MembershipNo;

  clientfile >> nMember >> text >> text >> text;

  // read data from file and store in the array 'member'
  do
    {
      clientfile >> member[nRead].name.first_name
                    >> member[nRead].name.surname
                    >> member[nRead].address.house_no
                    >> member[nRead].address.streetname
                    >> member[nRead].address.streettype
                    >> member[nRead].address.town
                    >> MembershipNo >> text >> text
                    >> member[nRead].date.day
                    >> member[nRead].date.month
                    >> member[nRead].date.year;

      if ( MembershipNo == 12)
        member[nRead].member = Quarterly;
      else
        member[nRead].member = Annual;

      if ( clientfile )
    {
      cout << member[nRead].name.first_name << " "
           << member[nRead].name.surname << " "
           << member[nRead].address.house_no << " "
           << member[nRead].address.streetname << " "
           << member[nRead].address.streettype << " "
           << member[nRead].address.town << " "
           << member[nRead].member << ". "
           << member[nRead].date.day << " "
           << member[nRead].date.month << " "
           << member[nRead].date.year << " \n";
      nRead++ ;
    }
    } while ( clientfile && nRead < ACC_MAX ) ;

  cout << nRead << " accounts read\n" ;
  // printf("dfdasf");
  clientfile.close() ;


}

int main()

{
  int menu_selection;

  cout << "\n"
      << "================================================= ================\n"
