*in the US

I have been to libraries in the US and in Europe and in Europe you are supposed to return the book exactly where you got it from if you dont decide to check it out. In the US though I was yelled at for doing that.

Y'all must realize "Europe" isn't one single sort of entity that defines all rules...

In Romania you are required to hand it to a worker to have it checked in and catalogued, you can't just put it back because they need to know if you went over your holding period or not. You're not allowed to keep it forever

I think they're talking about books you've read in the library and decided not to check out, not books you've already checked out, taken home and are now brining back.

Ohhh okay.

Yea we do put those right back, they don't keep track of reading sessions per book or anything like that
