Man: Did you see the announcement about the library staying open later? I think it's a great idea. I often lose track of time while studying, and having two extra hours would really help me prepare for exams without feeling rushed. Woman: I agree, but I'm worried about the cost. They said they'll hire more student workers, but that means less money for new books and databases. Man: True, but the announcement says they got additional funding, so maybe they won't cut resources. Also, I work at the library, and I'd welcome more shifts—it helps with my tuition. Woman: Good point. Still, I hope they don't reduce weekend hours to compensate. Man: The announcement didn't mention that, so I assume they'll keep it as is. Overall, I'm supportive.
