1. If you can't find a book in the library what do you do?

Explanation

When unable to find a book in the library, the best course of action is to ask a librarian for assistance. Librarians are trained professionals who have extensive knowledge of the library's collection and can help locate the desired book or suggest alternative resources. They can provide guidance on search strategies, recommend relevant materials, or even place a hold on the book if it is currently checked out. Asking a librarian is the most logical and effective solution in this situation.

2. On the Spine of our library books, what does a non fiction book have that a fiction book does not?

Explanation

Non-fiction books typically have numbers on the spine, such as call numbers or Dewey Decimal numbers, which help organize and categorize them in the library. Fiction books, on the other hand, do not require these numbers as they are usually organized alphabetically by the author's last name. Therefore, the presence of numbers on the spine is a distinguishing feature of non-fiction books.
