The Add Book screen will be accessible from the "Manage Books" module (although, currently, the "Manage Books" navbar link directly shows the Add Book screen).

Users will input book details in a form. Every book is collated in a queue for batch insertion. The collation queue will take the form of a table. A user can delete a record in this table using a button at the end of every row. A record, once inserted, may be edited by clicking a row on the table. This will trigger a pop-up for editing records.
