L: We accept both cash and credit card, but it will be such a small sum. It might be more convenient to send us a money order.
M: Hmm. Would it be all right if I left it until I come in next time and just pay cash then?
L: Of course. There’s no problem with that at all.
M: Fine. I’ll do that.
L: You tell me the books you need and I’ll tell you whether we have them immediately available or whether you’ll have to wait a bit for them, all right? The details I’ll need are the author, the publication date and the title of the book. Is that OK?
M: Yes, no problem at all. Um. The first one is by Hallsworth, published in 1978. It’s called Land and Water Resources of Australia.
L: Hmm. Yes. We have that available on the shelf.
M: Good. Now the next two are both government publications. The first one is rather old, published in 1984. That’s Land Degradation in Australia. But the second one is more recent. That’s Coastal Zone Inquiry Report in 1993.
L: I’m afraid we don’t have the first one. We’d have to get that from the government archives for you, but the second one, the later one, has just come in so I’ll put that aside for you.
M: Wonderful. Now there are three more. Two rather old books, but they’re standard works so you probably have them. Environmental Law by Fisher, and Environmental Chemistry by Raiswell. They were both published in 1980.
L: Yes, we do have those texts. Environmental Law should be on the shelf, but Environmental Chemistry is out on loan at the moment. I’ll put that on reserve for you.
M: Right. And the last one is The Environmental Impact of Travel and Tourism by M. Burns and Associates, 1989.
L: Burns, M. The Environmental Impact... No, I’m sorry we don’t have that. I’ll have to use the interlibrary loan service and get it for you.
M: Oh. How long is that likely to take?
L: It really depends where we can get it. If it’s available locally it shouldn’t take more than a few days but if we have to send overseas for it, it could be rather a while. We’ll do our best to hurry up.
M: But I do need this one badly, especially the Introduction part. And you see, my article is due in a month...
L: In that case, we may use the email service. This is a new service. We will photocopy the pages you want and send them to you by email. But you have to pay an extra charge of photocopying, half a dollar per page.
M: That’s no problem, as long as I can get them in time. Just email me the Introduction part.
L: Good. Tell me your email address, please.
M: That’s WillyHumpAus@yahoo.com. Capital W, H and A.
L: I got it.
