If your parents volunteer to take back library items for you, make sure you tell them which library the items are from. Otherwise, a copy of The New Yorker and a sound-effects CD will be returned to the Richmond Hill Public Library, instead of the Markham Public Library, where the two items were originally borrowed from.
Of course, you don't realize this mistake until a week later when you receive a call, telling you that you have outstanding items.
Such is the case when you live in a place with multiple library networks. It's not like Ottawa where everything is amalgamated and therefore, everyone from Kanata to Orleans, falls under the branch of the Ottawa Public Library.
Now if you excuse me, I must go clean up this mess.
