English to Spanish translations [PRO] Other | | English term or phrase: Items not taken care | Here's the sentence: Items not taken care of by November 17, 2011 at 4:00 p.m. resulted in the loss of library privileges until the owed fee is paid.
(Note to reader: This is referring to books and other materials that have not been returned by the due date to the library of a school. I think here, "taken care of" means "returned and paid".)

12 mins confidence:   | items not taken care Si los [materiales] no se devuelven y se pagan...
Explanation: Tienes razón en tu propuesta. Si utilizásemos la traducción literal en este caso (que no se han cuidado debidamente/sobre los que no se haya prestado la debida atención) no funcionaría.
Saludos.
