全文在下面。就是想请教一下 Let me check in the computer. Um… doesn’t seem to be checked out and it’s not on reserve.
这句中的后半句应该怎么翻译?
1. 它既没有被借出去,也没有被预定?
2.它既没有被借出去,也不是不外借的馆藏书



TPO 14 – Listening Part Conversation1 Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and the librarian employee. Student: Hi, I am looking for this book---the American judicial system. And I can’t seem to find it anywhere. I need to read a chapter for my political science class. Librarian: Let me check in the computer. Um… doesn’t seem to be checked out and it’s not on reserve. You’ve checked the shelves I assume. Student: Yeah, I even checked other shelves and tables next to where the book should be. Librarian: Well, it’s still here in the library. So people must be using it. You know this seems to be a very popular book tonight. We show six copies. None are checked out. And, yet you didn’t even find one copy on the shelves. Is it a big class? Student: Maybe about Seventy Five? Librarian: Well, you should ask your professor to put some of the copies on reserve. You know about the ‘Reserve system’, right? Student: I know that you have to read reserve books in the library and that you have time limits. But I didn’t know that I could ask a professor to put a book on the reserve. I mean I thought the professors make that kind of decisions at the beginning of the semester. Librarian: Oh… they can put books on reserve at anytime during the semester. Student: You know reserving book seems a bit unfair. What if someone who is not in the class wants to use the book? Librarian: That’s why I said some copies. Student: Ah, well, I’ll certainly talk to my professor about it tomorrow. But what I am gonna do tonight? Librarian: I guess you could walk around the Poli-Sci ----- ‘Political Science’ section and look at the books waiting to be re-shelved. Student: There are do seem to be more than normal. Librarian: We are a little short of staff right now. Someone quit recently, so things aren’t getting re-shelved as quickly as usual. I don’t think they’ve hired replacement yet, so, yeah, the un-shelved books can get a bit out of hand. Student: This may sound a bit weird. But I’ve been thinking about getting a job. Um… I’ve never worked at the library before, But….. Librarian: That’s not a requirement. The job might still be open. At the beginning of the semester we were swamped with applications, but I guess everyone who wants the job has one by now.  Student: What can you tell me about the job? Librarian: Well, we work between six and ten hours a week, so it’s a reasonable amount. Usually we can pick the hours we want to work. But since you’d be starting so late in the semester, I’m not sure how that would work for you. And… Oh… we get paid the normal university rates for student employees. Student: So who do I talk to? Librarian: I guess you talk to Dr. Jenkins, the head librarian. She does the hiring

on reserve应该是馆藏保留的意思

我觉得意思是 它既没有被还回来 馆藏书目里也没有 意思就是哪儿都没有 所以学生才找不到 要是按照你的两种解释 逻辑上说不通啊
