Solutions can vary a lot depending on many factors.

Search the example fitting best your structure. One possibility could be: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8ysw4sby(v=vs.110).aspx[^]

Try it and if you get problems, come back and edit your message to add the new information / a code snippet giving problems. You can use the "improve question" widget for that.

You can do this by running a Windows Scheduler. It is nothing but one Window or Console App, which will be scheduled in your Server. You can select the Time(when to run) and frequency(when to repeat it again) for the Scheduler.

In the code, you will fetch the records and compare according to your business rules.

For Example in your case, you will fetch records for each user and check if the difference between Current Date and Book Return Date is 2 days or not.

If difference is 2 days, then send the mail to the user.
