Sample  Answer :

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Rona Lyn Olivar. A 4th year nursing student and a regular borrower of the main college library with library number 442805. I am writing to you today because I am afraid I cannot return the books I have borrowed on time.

I borrowed 2 books namely Psychiatric Nursing 5th edition by Sheila Videbeck and Psychology for Nurses by Harold Mcgarry on the 15th of March and will be due today. However, it is very unfortunate that my grandmother has brought to the hospital in Makati Medical Center in Metro Manila, which is 5 hours away from this province. At the time you are reading this letter, I am now on the bus on my way to the hospital.

However, I asked my roommate to return the books I have borrowed today, but she said she can do it tomorrow because she has important things to do this day. I am willing to pay the fine as soon as I arrived.

I am hoping for your consideration regarding this matter.

Yours faithfully,
R. Olivar
