Resumo

This note provides evidence on inattention in an informationcommons. Employing a large dataset compiling daily transactionsin libraries, we compare a specific compliance behavior of libraryusers over weekdays. If inattention affects rule compliance, thenone would plausibly expect greater return delays in periods ofpotentially higher inattention, such as the day before weekends,holidays, and exam weeks. We found robust evidence of a day ofthe week effect: inattention, as approximately measured by delaysin returning checked out books, is consistently higher on Fridays.Meanwhile, there is no evidence of such an inattentive behavior indates near holidays, or exam weeks
