8. How long can you usually keep library books for?

Explanation

Library books can usually be kept for two weeks. This is a common borrowing period in many libraries, allowing readers enough time to read and return the book without incurring late fees. This timeframe strikes a balance between giving readers sufficient time to enjoy the book and ensuring that the book is available for other patrons to borrow.

Submit
9. Where can you search the OPAC from?

Explanation

The correct answer is "All the computers in school" because the Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) is a system that allows users to search for library materials, such as books, journals, and other resources, available in the library. Since it is mentioned that the OPAC can be searched from "All the computers in school," it implies that the library has made the catalog accessible on all computers within the school premises, not just limited to the library or computers in a specific block.

Submit
10. Approximately how many books does the library have?

Explanation

The correct answer is 15,500 because it is the only option that falls within a reasonable range for the number of books in a library. 10,000 seems too low and 236,987 seems too high. Therefore, 15,500 is the most plausible answer.
