Analysis:

  Only a few students go to the school library in winter/summer breaks.  So we suggest that school may reduce the staff during winter/summer breaks or encourage students to borrow more books before the semesters end and return after the new semesters begin.  In addition, we will recommend the students going to the municipal libraries on holidays.
