This is best explained with a few examples:
I visited Beck Library and asked the librarian if she had any books about...
...Schrödinger's Cat. Her computer couldn't decide if it was in stock or not.
...Pavlov. "That rings a bell."
...Heisenburg. She couldn't be certain.
...fonts. She said they had all types.
...camouflage techniques. She said they did have some, but she couldn't find them.
...archaeology. She said they did have some somewhere, but she'd have to dig a bit deeper to find them.
...a narrow land mass between two bigger ones. After much searching, she eventually found it - "Oh yes, isthmus be the one!"
You get the idea. (Half-inched and adapted from the I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Appreciation Society group on Facebook) - multiple entries per post are allowed.

...Communism. They had a book, but it was full of Marx.
... Lagomorphs. The book had been just checked out - I was a hare too late.
... Pluto. She thought she had one, but when we located it it turned out to be a booklet.

The proper response to that question is, "Yes! We have no banana books! We have no banana books today."

I asked the Librarian for a book on how to be a detective, and she said, 'Find it yourself.'.
For a book on Police Procedures, and she asked, 'Have you got a warrant?"
For a book on Emergency Medical Procedures, but by the time she got me the book, I'd flatlined.
