Librarian: Itaskll send it to the Manuscript Collection. Is that good enough?
Misha: What kind of collection is that?
Librarian: Ittasks the place where the most rare old books are kept. Some of the books are very rare. And some of them were saved from fire.
Rob: What are you talking about? Who can burn a book?

Mark: I remember books were burned in Europe at the time of the Inquisition.

Misha: Youtaskre right, awful things used to happen. But it was a long time ago.
Librarian: Itaskm afraid people haventaskt got much better since then. Books were burned in Nazi Germany and that was about seventy years ago. In fact, in a lot of countries books are still burned nowadays.
Mark: Youtaskre joking!
Librarian: No, ittasks true. And there are a lot of books that are not burned, but banned. Thattasks very sad too.
