  • A Lending
  • B Borrowing
  • C Loaning
  • D Renting
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Public libraries lend books to readers, meaning they allow readers to take books out temporarily.

Saying a library borrows books would imply the library is taking from readers, which is incorrect.

Loaning is a synonym of lending but less commonly used for libraries.

Renting suggests a paid transaction, which public libraries generally do not engage in.
