Go4Expert - Cannot load text files to structure properly.

Dear ALL,
I am trying to load a few lines ( many strings seperated by a space) from a text file and break them into string tokens and store it as structure fields. This functions should be performed by the load_items(item); function.
However there is an anomaly. When i print the structure fields to check if they have been loaded properly, it turns out they are not!. when i print structure fields outside the load_items(item); function the fields genre, borrower, availability, due_date do not seem to be stored properly in the array.

The following code is the main function and the load_items function.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <string.h>

#include <stdlib.h>



struct items

{

 char name[10];             

 char call_no[10];

 char author[10];

 char type[10];

 char borrower[10];

 char availability[1];

 char due_date[8];

 char genre[10];

 

};

 



int load_items(struct items item[5500]);





int main()

{



 struct items item[3];

 int total_items;



  total_items = load_items(item);

  // printf("\n%d\n",total_items);



for(ctr=0;ctr<total_items;ctr++)

   {   

      printf("\n%s ",item[ctr].name);

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].call_no);

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].author);

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].type);

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].genre);            // error

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].borrower);

      printf("%s ",item[ctr].availability);      // error

      printf("%s\n",item[ctr].due_date);         // error

   }



system("pause > null");

return 0;

}





int load_items(struct items item[3])

{

 int total_items=0;

 char *string;              // string tokens of item_details

 char item_details[69];

 int ctr;

 FILE *items;

  

 items = fopen("items2.txt","r");



 if(items == NULL)

  {

   printf("ERROR : Unable to open file!\n");          

   return 0;

  }

  

  

                                                

 while(fgets(item_details,69,items))  

  {                                                 

  

   string = strtok(item_details," ");   

   strcpy((item[total_items]).name,string);   printf("%s ",item[total_items].name);

                                        

   string = strtok(NULL," ");

   strcpy((item[total_items]).call_no,string);  printf("%s ",item[total_items].call_no);

                             

   string = strtok(NULL," ");   

   strcpy((item[total_items]).author,string); printf("%s ",item[total_items].author);

                

   string = strtok(NULL," ");

   strcpy((item[total_items]).type,string); printf("%s ",item[total_items].type);

   

   string = strtok(NULL," "); 

   strcpy((item[total_items]).genre,string);   printf("%s ",item[total_items].genre);

                  

   string = strtok(NULL," ");

   strcpy((item[total_items]).borrower,string); printf("%s ",item[total_items].borrower);

                   

   string = strtok(NULL," ");

   strcpy((item[total_items]).availability,string);   printf("%s ",item[total_items].availability);

                   

   string = strtok(NULL,"\n");      // \n is the last characcter in item_details

   strcpy((item[total_items].due_date),string);   printf("%s\n",item[total_items].due_date);

  

  

    total_items++;

    

  }   

    

  // printf("\n%d",total_items);





fclose(items);

return total_items;

}
