Possibly also different times? This was the early 80s, and loans were done entirely manually, so that I had two little folders that were my library 'cards', and the card from in the book went in to my little folder, and then the librarian put it in the filing drawer. By the time I had kids, library cards were swipe cards with barcodes, and we could get many books per person.
