When we obtain a book from the library, we almost always use the verb "to borrow". "To borrow" means to take and use something belonging to someone else, with the intention of returning it to them once we have finished using it. It is much cheaper to borrow books from the library than to buy them from a shop!
「already」は「すでに、以前から」という意味です。この場面で便利です：
The bookmark was already in there.
（しおりはすでにそこにありました）

When you get a book from a library this you are said to 'take it out' or 'borrow it' if you borrow something you are not keeping it just using and returning it o where you got it from
if something was there or done before then this is called 'already'
"It was already inside the book"
For some to 'already' be there this states that something was originally there before you where able to see/have it. ex. "The bookmark was already in the book when I rented it from the library"
"I found it inside, it is not mine"
To 'Find/found' something is to come across something by accident.
"It was already inside the book"（既に本の中に入っていました）
'Already' は、それが自分の所に来る前からそこにあったことを表します。
例：
"The bookmark was already in the book when I rented it from the library"
（私が図書館から本を借りたときにはもう中にしおりがありました）
"I found it inside, it is not mine"（中に入っていました、私のではありません）
'Find/found' は「偶然見つける」という意味です。
No, it isnt mine. It must have been put there by the previous borrower.
No, it isn't mine. When I borrowed the book, the bookmark was already there.
No, it isn't mine. One of the previous borrowers must have left it in there.
People always put book marks in the books they read. It's alright to leave a bookmark in your own book for future reference. But, if it's a book one borrowed from a library, it's importatnt to remove the bookmark when returning it so that other borrowers don't get misled by it when referencing. However, it's easy to forget a bookmark in the book if it's not sticking out. Oftentimes, a future borrowers of the book may also forget remove it.
So if you are asked by the librarian when returning the book as to whether it's your bookmark, you may respond in any of the following ways:
No, it isnt mine. It must have been put there by the previous borrower.
or
No, it isn't mine. When I borrowed the book, the bookmark was already there.
or
No, it isn't mine. One of the previous borrowers must have left it in there.
本を読むときはしおりを入れる人が多いですね。自分の本にしおりを入れておくのは全く問題ありませんが、それが図書館で借りた本なら返すときには次の人が混乱しないように取っておかないといけません。
しかし、しおりは本から出ていないと忘れられることが多いです。そして、しばしば次に本を借りた人もそれを取るのを忘れます。
本を返すときに図書館員からそれが自分のしおりか尋ねられたら、次のように返答できます。
No, it isnt mine. It must have been put there by the previous borrower.
（いいえ、私のではありません。前に借りた人が入れたんだと思います）
No, it isn't mine. When I borrowed the book, the bookmark was already there.
（いいえ、私のではありません。私が借りたときにはもうそのしおりは入っていました）
No, it isn't mine. One of the previous borrowers must have left it in there.
（いいえ、私のではありません。前に借りた人が入れたんだと思います）
