Nowadays more and more towns have public libraries.There
are large collections of books that anybody living in the town may
borrow if he joins the library.Sometimes you
may have to
pay little money to join.Sometimes it is
free.
How to
join a library:Go to the library andsee
the clerk at the desk.You will
probably have to
sign a form promising to take care of the books.Then you are
usually given two or three tickets with your
name and address
on them.When you have chosen
the books you take them to the clerk with the tickets.The clerk
keeps the tickets until you return the books.
How
to find a book:Most libraries are divided into three sections:
reference 参考书 fiction and non-fiction.
In the reference section are kept books which may be taken away
from the library as
encyclopedias百科全书 And dictionaries.
You may take these books from the
shelves and read
them at one of the tables but you must not take them outside the
library.
The
fiction section contains novels or story books.They are arranged
in alphabetical order according to the author’s
surname.Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens would be placed under D
for Dickens.
The
non-fiction section is not quite so simple.Here books are found
dealing with all kinds of subjects.They are usually arranged in
groups so that all the books on one subject are together.The books
on this subject are then arranged in alphabetical order according
to the author’s name.
Each
book has a card with the author’s name another with the title of
the book and usually
another with the subject of the book.These cards are kept in
drawers and are
arranged in alphabetical order.If we know either the title or the
author or the subject we can find the card.This tells us the
number of the book and we
can find it easily.

现今越来越多的城市拥有自己的公共图书馆,那里收集了大量的书籍,任何办理借书证的人都可以去借书.有时你需要花一些钱来办借书证,有时办借书证是免费的.
办理借书证的方法：去到图书馆的办公柜台前,你将有可能不得不填一张表以承诺保护好已借书籍,然后你将被给两到三个写有你名字和地址的小票,当你选择好了书,把它们连同小票带到柜台,收银员会保存小票直到你还书.
如何去找一本书：大多数图书馆被分为三部分：参考书、文学作品和非文学作品.在参考书区存放着（不）可以借出馆的书籍,像百科全书和词典.你可以从架子上拿下来在桌子前读它们,但你不能把它们带出馆.（In the reference section are kept books which may be taken away中may后应该是少了一个not）.文学作品区包括长篇小说和故事书,他们依照作者姓氏的字母顺序排列,像狄更斯的《雾都孤儿》会被放在字母D开头的Dickens下.非文学作品区不是那么简简单单.这里能找到所有科目有关的东西,书是按组分的,这样所有有关一个科目的书就放到了一起.一个科目的书又按作者名字的字母顺序排列.
每一本书都对应一个写有作者名字、书名和所属科目的卡片.这些卡片被放在抽屉里按字母顺序排列.如果我们知道书名或者作者或者所属科目,就能找到卡片.它能告诉我们书号来帮助我们容易的找到书籍.
