TOEFL Campus Conversation: Booking a Study Room

Student

Hi, I tried to book a group study room online for Thursday, but the system won't let me.

Librarian

Ah, that's because of the new policy. Since this semester, rooms can only be booked three days in advance.

Student

Oh. Thursday is five days away.

Librarian

Right. So you'll be able to book it from Monday morning. They go fast, so I'd log in at eight.

Student

OK. The thing is, our presentation is on Friday, and we really need a room with a screen.

Librarian

Then you'll want the rooms on the third floor, those are the only ones with screens. Or, if they're full, the media lab lends portable projectors.

Student

For free?

Librarian

Yes, with your student ID, for up to four hours.

Student

Perfect. Thanks, that really helps.
