  2. Searching by AuthorA customer knows the author's name but is unsure about the exact title(s) and asks a staff member for help finding books by that author.
  3. Checking Book Availability/StockA customer finds a book they want but it's out of stock or they need multiple copies, so they ask a staff member to check the inventory system.
  4. Asking for Recommendations (Genre-Specific)A customer is looking for a new book in a specific genre (e.g., sci-fi, history, romance) and asks a staff member for recommendations.
  5. Finding a Book Based on Topic/ThemeA customer has a general topic or theme in mind but no specific book in mind (e.g., 'books about mindfulness,' 'cookbooks for beginners') and asks for guidance.
  6. Pre-ordering or Special Ordering a BookA customer wants to pre-order an upcoming release or special order a book that is not typically stocked, discussing the process with a staff member.
