Combining notre with on

Matt-D27

So....when speaking or writing informally we use 'on' in place of 'nous', but then what word does one use for 'our'?

Should I write:

On cherche nos livres

or

On cherche ses livres

as an informal alternative to

Nous cherchons nos livres

????
toru e

toru e

It's «On cherche ses livres.» (i. e. on would use the third person singular possessive: sa/son/ses)
