How to practise library notices

Read a notice's condition before its instruction. A word such as only or not can change who the message concerns. The library here is invented and the opening times are not real. Copy the source instead of treating it as current visitor information.

What to check after a run

Review exceptions and location words carefully. Do not shorten a repeated phrase when the visible text includes it in full.

Preview the exact targets before choosing a run. Counts include spaces and punctuation after whitespace normalisation.

1. Find the pattern

Practice notice: sample maps are available beside the reading table. Please return each example to the labelled tray. The archive folder is for display only.

2. Connect the movement

The fictional library has moved its draft catalogues to shelf B. The reference cards remain on shelf A. Need a larger example? Read the note beside the paper display before choosing a sample.

3. Apply it in context

This imaginary library notice asks visitors to keep the blue and grey drafts separate. The blue folder contains current examples; the grey folder contains earlier versions. No items are available to borrow through this exercise. Copy the distinction exactly, including the words current and earlier.
