Listen to a conversation between a student and a library employee.
Excuse me, I received a letter that I am supposed to return a book that I checked out back in September, it's called Modern Social Problems. But I am writing my senior thesis, so I thought I was allowed to keep the book for the whole academic year.
So you signed up for extended borrowing privileges?
Yeah.
And we are still asking you to bring the book back?
Uh-huh. Do I really have to?
Well, let me check the computer. The title was... Modern Social Problems?
Yeah.
Eh... Ok, yeah. It's been recalled. You can keep it all year as long as no one else requests it, but someone else has, it looks like one of the professors in the sociology department. So you have to bring it back. You can check it out again when it is returned in a couple of weeks. What if the person renews it? And I really need it right now.
All of it? Or is there a certain section or chapter you are working with?
Well, there's one chapter in particular I am working with, but why?
Well, we normally don't do this, but because of the circumstances we can photocopy up to one chapter of the book for you. Why don't you do that for the one you are working with right now? And by the time you need the rest of the book, maybe it'll have been returned.
Oh, that would be great.
Do you have it with you?
Eh... no, it's in my dorm room. These are books I want to check out today.Is it OK if I bring that one by in a couple of days?
Actually, the due day is tomorrow. After that, there'll be a two dollar per day fine. But you need to return it today if you want to check out any books today. That's our policy.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, not a lot of people realize that. In fact, every semester we get a few students who would have their borrowing privileges suspended completely because they haven't returned books. They are allowed to use books only in the library. They are not allowed to check anything out because of unreturned books. That's not good. I guess I should head back to the dorm right now.
But before you go, what you should do is fill out a form requesting the book back in two weeks. Then the person who requested it won't be able to renew it. You'll get it back quickly.
I'll do that right now.

听一段学生和图书馆管理员之间的对话。
打扰了，我收到一封要求我归还一本我9 月份时候借出的书的信，这本书叫做《现代社会问题》。但我正在写我的论文，所以，我当时觉得我可以占用这本书一整个学年。
那你完成延期续借的程序了吗？
是的。
这样的话，我们还在要求你把书还回来？
嗯，对！我真的要把书还回去吗？
好吧，我上网查一下。这本书名字叫……叫《现代社会问题》？
是的。
嗯，好的，是的。这本书是被要求归还了。只要没有人要求借走它，你在将来的一整个学年都可以占用它，但不巧的是，有人要借，而且这个人好像还是社会学习的某一位教授。所以你只能把书还回来了。你可以在几周后，它被重新归还时再借出去。但是要是那个人又续借了呢？我现在真的很需要它。
整本书你都要吗？还是，你只需要这本书的某一章？
嗯，我要用的是书里的一章，这有用吗？
嗯，我们一般来说都不会这么做的，但因为在这种情况下我们可以为你扫描你要的那章，所以我这样问你。你为何不把你要用的那章马上扫描下来呢？等到你需要这本书的别的内容的时候，没准那时候书已经还回来了！
哦，这太棒了！
书你带过来了吗？
嗯，没有，书在我的寝室里。这些书是我今天要借的。我能过几天再把书带过来吗？
事情是这样的，明天是这本书归还的截止日期。在此之后，就会有每天两块钱的罚款。而且你必须今天就把书还回来，如果你还想借书出去的话。这是我们的规矩。
哦，我明白了。
嗯，其实有很多学生不知道是这么回事情。每一学期我们都能碰到一些学生因为没能按期还书而丧失了外借资格的。他们现在只能在图书馆里面看。那不太好，我想我应该现在就回宿舍一趟。
你走之前，要做的事情是把这张要求两周之内还书的表填了这样的话，那位借书人就不能借完之后续借它了。你还得尽快把书还回来。
我马上办！
