When Harry took a library book home without checking it out, he was merely given a warning by the librarian. However, when Ron did the same thing, his library privileges were suspended for a month. Harry's actions were revealed when he returned the book to the library, and the librarian noticed that it had never been properly checked out. Ron's action came to the library's attention when his younger sister set the book on fire, and their parents forced her to repay the library from her allowance. Although the book Ron took was destroyed and the book Harry took was unharmed, the damage was caused by Ron's sister, so the difference was not due to a difference between Ron's and Harry's behaviors. Therefore, Harry should also have had his library privileges suspended.
