TPO 14 Conversation 1
　　Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and the librarian employee.

　　Student
　　Hi, I am looking for this book---the American judicial system. And I can't seem to find it anywhere. I need to read a chapter for my political science class.
　　Librarian
　　Let me check in the computer. Um… doesn't seem to be checked out and it's not on reserve. You've checked the shelves I assume.
　　Student
　　Yeah, I even checked other shelves and tables next to where the book should be.
　　Librarian
　　Well, it's still here in the library. So people must be using it. You know this seems to be a very popular book tonight. We show six copies. None are checked out. And, yet you didn't even find one copy on the shelves. Is it a big class?
　　Student
　　Maybe about Seventy Five?
　　Librarian
　　Well, you should ask your professor to put some of the copies on reserve. You know about the ‘Reserve system', right?
　　Student
　　I know that you have to read reserve books in the library and that you have time limits. But I didn't know that I could ask a professor to put a book on the reserve. I mean I thought the professors make that kind of decisions at the beginning of the semester.
　　Librarian
　　Oh… they can put books on reserve at anytime during the semester.
　　Student
　　You know reserving book seems a bit unfair. What if someone who is not in the class wants to use the book?
　　Librarian
　　That's why I said some copies.
　　Student
　　Ah, well, I'll certainly talk to my professor about it tomorrow. But what I am gonna do tonight?
　　Librarian
　　I guess you could walk around the Poli-Sci ----- ‘Political Science' section and look at the books waiting to be re-shelved.
　　Student
　　There are do seem to be more than normal.
　　Librarian
　　We are a little short of staff right now. Someone quit recently, so things aren't getting re-shelved as quickly as usual. I don't think they've hired replacement yet, so, yeah, the un-shelved books can get a bit out of hand.
　　Student
　　This may sound a bit weird. But I've been thinking about getting a job. Um… I've never worked at the library before, But…..
　　Librarian
　　That's not a requirement. The job might still be open. At the beginning of the semester we were swamped with applications, but I guess everyone who wants the job has one by now.
　　Student
　　What can you tell me about the job?
　　Librarian
　　Well, we work between six and ten hours a week, so it's a reasonable amount. Usually we can pick the hours we want to work. But since you'd be starting so late in the semester, I'm not sure how that would work for you. And… Oh… we get paid the normal university rates for student employees.
　　Student
　　So who do I talk to?
　　Librarian
　　I guess you talk to Dr. Jenkins, the head librarian. She does the hiring.
