The pronoun "his or her" in sentence 16b is an example of a possessive pronoun. It is used to show ownership. In this case, it indicates that the copy of the game belongs to the person who requested it, and they can keep it in their video library. The use of "his or her" is a gender-inclusive way to express ownership without specifying a particular gender. This is often used when the gender of the person is unknown or when you want to refer to both males and females.
