What are some strategies for creating separate user and admin views in a PHP library system?

To create separate user and admin views in a PHP library system, you can use a role-based access control system. This involves checking the user's role (user or admin) and displaying the appropriate content based on that role. You can use session variables to store the user's role after they log in and then use that information to determine which views to display.

// Check user role and display appropriate content
session_start();

if ($_SESSION['role'] == 'admin') {
    // Admin view
    include 'admin_view.php';
} else {
    // User view
    include 'user_view.php';
}
