Then Xiaohong should coordinate with the librarian to explain that the book was not broken by herself, but was broken. If there is evidence, take the evidence, and if there is a witness, find a witness. If there is no evidence, be reasonable and present the facts, because librarians can't punish themselves with other people's mistakes.
If the coordination fails, the consequences of bad books will be serious. If Xiaohong is a minor, she can tell her parents or the class teacher to coordinate and solve the problem. If Xiaohong is an adult, she can communicate directly with the superior leader of the librarian, explain the ins and outs, and try her best to prove her innocence.
